O’Keefe was charged alongside fellow influencer Cam Higby after they allegedly misrepresented themselves at polling places during Minnesota’s primary in August.
A Minnesota prosecutor on Wednesday charged conservative provocateur James O’Keefe and influencer Cam Higby with felony counts of unlawful voting and identity theft after they misrepresented themselves at polling places in August using the names of registered voters.
Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty, who announced the charges at a news conference, accused the pair of entering polling places during state primary election voting on Aug. 11 and identifying themselves using names of registered voters in those precincts without those voters’ knowledge or permission.
“Both men stopped short of signing the oath we all sign before receiving our ballot,” she said. “But Minnesota law states clearly that no individual shall intentionally misrepresent their identity in applying for a ballot.”
A lady in Georgia, a mother, did less than this by accident.
She’s still in jail. Because she’s black.
I hope someone is keeping track. Lots of righties crying about voter fraud then committing it. We’ll need a tally at some point. My absolute favorite is when they get caught, they always say “I did it to prove the lefties can do it” but they’re the only ones who actually do it. Once again, every accusation is a confession.
No plea. Max sentence. Make an example. MAGAts should be on board too, given how much they claim to hate voter fraud.
So, if he’s convicted, does the person who found his fraudulent voting get that $1m that trump promised?
I guarantee that does not apply if the guilty person is a Republican.
When conservative activists do crimes, it’s totes cool.
This asshole is responsible for the moral panic that destroyed ACORN.
They posted videos capturing their interactions on social media in August. O’Keefe said on X that they dressed in “Muslim garb” — including, for one of them, a full-face veil known as a niqab
Are men “allowed” to wear a niqab?
He’s dressing in women’s clothes now?
What restroom did he use?!
“Influencer”?
Ratfucker. Luckily he’s such a raving asshole that he’ll piss someone off in prison.
Of course he did. Republicans can’t win if they don’t cheat, lie or steal.
I feel like this is then just trying to “prove” how easy it is to do a voter fraud.
Yeah. Right. Hey… did you know if you robbed a bank just to show how easy it was to rob a bank that you’d STILL be a bank robber ? Weird how that works, huh?
Feel like? It’s 100% what it was. I believe that was their stated goal.

A Nazi committing crimes??? Nooooo
