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 #8NN8newsnow.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.
