Republican Activist Won't Be Charged In 'Voter Fraud' Stunt

A Colorado Republican activist won't be charged for pulling a same-day voter registration stunt in September, The Denver Post reported on Thursday.

Jon Caldara, a Boulder resident, registered to vote in El Paso County on Sept. 7, three days before the Sept. 10 recall election of now-former Colorado Senate President John Morse (D). Caldara's group, the Independence Institute, was a key player in the fight against the 2013 gun-control legislation championed by Morse.

Caldara did not end up casting a vote in the election.

"The point was not to be that last vote for Morse — as delicious as that might be," Caldara said at the time, according to the Post. "The purpose is to show how easy it is under the new law to move voters from district to district."

1. Unless there is a Colorado law

making it illegal to register to vote in a precinct where the person registering does not reside, I guess this guy should not be prosecuted.
