#BREAKING: Nevada man who voted twice using dead wife’s ballot sentenced to probation, fined $2,000 #8NN 8newsnow.com/news/local-new…
“This particular case of voter fraud was particularly egregious because the offender continually spread inaccurate information about our elections despite being the source of fraud himself," @AaronDFordNV says in a statement. bit.ly/3HrZXHg
"Ultimately to me, this seems like a cheap political stunt that kind of backfired and shows that our voting system actually works because you were ultimately caught," Judge Kierny told Hartle in court. bit.ly/31YjXAU

I-Team: Las Vegas man, whose case GOP highlighted as voter fraud, to plead guilty to voting twice in 2020 election using dead wife's ballot #8NN 8newsnow.com/i-team/i-team-…
Rosemarie Hartle, of Las Vegas, died in 2017 at age 52 from breast cancer, Kirk Hartle, told the I-Team last November. A ballot for Rosemarie was issued in October 2020 and later received by the county, but Kirk said the ballot never came to his house.
As part of the plea deal, Hartle will avoid prison time and will have to serve probation. If he stays out of trouble for a year, he will be able to withdraw his plea and instead plead guilty to a charge of conspiracy to commit voting more than once in the same election.

#BREAKING: Las Vegas man who claimed his dead wife’s mail-in ballot showed voter fraud is accused of sending it in himself and voting twice, investigators confirm. Donald "Kirk" Hartle faces two charges relating to the 2020 election. His wife died from cancer in 2017. #8NN
Prosecutors say a Las Vegas man forged his dead wife’s signature on her ballot and mailed it in and then claimed it had been stolen. The I-Team has learned that man is now facing charges: 8newsnow.com/i-team/i-team-… #8NN
"It made no sense to me," Hartle told me in November. "It lent some credence to what you've been hearing in the media about these possibilities and now it makes me wonder how pervasive is this?"

A review at the @NVSOS found it wasn't pervasive.
