A Des Moines woman charged with committing voter fraud has said she voted twice because she was afraid her vote for Donald Trump would be changed to a vote for Hillary Clinton.
Participating in early voting in Iowa, registered Republican Terri Rote allegedly cast two ballots for the Republican presidential nominee. Arrested and charged with election misconduct, she was released from jail on Friday on a $5,000 bond.
I wasnt planning on doing it twice. It was spur of the moment, Rote told Iowa Public Radio.
Echoing Trumps repeated remarks about widespread voter fraud, disputed by Republicans and Democrats and made without evidence, Rote added: The polls are rigged.
