N.H. AG Unveils Charges Against Third Person Accused Of Double Voting

NHPR

The office of New Hampshire Attorney General Gordon MacDonald announced Wednesday charges against a third person accused of double voting.

 

"We indicted Spencer McKinnon for alleged violation of RSA 659:34-a, for knowingly voting in more than one state during the November 2016 General Election," said Assistant Attorney General Matthew Broadhead, who is one of the prosecutors on the case.  

 

This latest indictment comes two years after New Hampshire adopted the Interstate Voter Crosscheck Program, a system that attempts to identify voters who are registered in more than one state.

 

The AG's office says, if convicted, the charges carry a maximum penalty of three-and-a-half to seven years in prison and a $4,000 fine.
