IOWA: Trump Supporter Busted For Voter Fraud Says She Did It Because The Polls Are Totally Rigged

Iowa Public Radio reports:

A Des Moines woman has been charged with Election Misconduct, a Class D felony, after allegedly voting twice for GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump. Terri Rote says she was afraid her first ballot for Trump would be changed to a vote for Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton. “I wasn’t planning on doing it twice, it was spur of the moment,” says Rote. “The polls are rigged.” But Polk County Attorney John Sarcone says voter fraud in Iowa is very rare, which is evidence that Iowa’s election system is secure.

The Blaze reports:



Terri Lynn Rote, 55, was booked into the county jail at 3:40 p.m. on Thursday, according to the Des Moines Register, for a first-degree election misconduct charge — a Class D felony. She was released on a $5,000 bond, the Register reported Friday. Rote is scheduled to appear before a court on Nov. 7, one day before the Nov. 8 presidential election. TheBlaze caught up with Rote, an early Donald Trump supporter, in Des Moines on Feb. 1. She told us that she planned to caucus for the businessman and presidential candidate in east Des Moines later that night.
