Virginia college student gets 100 days in jail for registering dead voters for Democrats by Sean Langille \| August 10, 2017 01:25 PM Print this article Spieles said he acted alone, and was not told by anyone else in the party to create fake voters. (iStock by Getty Images) gsagi Sign up for breaking news alerts SUBMIT A James Madison University student was sentenced to prison Tuesday after pleading guilty to registering dead voters for the Democratic Party during the 2016 election. Andrew Spieles, 21, was given a 100-day prison sentence in federal court for falsifying 18 Virginia voter registration forms last August. A judge waived any fees associated with the charges due to an inability to pay the fine, and Spieles will not have to serve any probation following his jail-time. Voter fraud is punishable by up to a year in prison and a $100,000 fine in the Commonwealth of Virginia, but Spieles was able to enter a plea agreement with Assistant United States Attorney Jeb Terrien that limited his sentence to between 100 and 120 days behind bars. Spieles worked as a Democratic campaign operative during its voter registration drive, and admitted that he prepared the false voter registration forms by obtaining the name, age, and address of individuals from "walk sheets" provided to him by the Virginia Democratic Party. He fabricated a birth date based on the ages listed in the walk sheet, and fabricated the social security numbers, the Justice Department said. Spieles said he acted alone, and was not told by anyone else in the party to create fake voters. Law enforcement was contacted last August after an employee at the Harrisonburg, Va., Registrar's Office identified a registration form submitted in the name of the deceased father of a Rockingham County judge. The Registrar's Office then discovered more instances of falsified forms as it reviewed additional registrations. Additional registrations were found to be in the names of deceased people, while others contained inaccurate or incorrect information, including wrong middle names, birth dates and social security numbers. Court documents indicate Spieles' job was to register as many voters as possible and report to the Democratic campaign. The investigation involved the Federal Bureau of Investigation along with local law enforcement. Virginia college student gets 100 days in jail for registering dead voters for Democrats 8 washexam

Rose McGowan Breaks Down: ‘I Used To Be A Proud Democrat’By Paul BoisDailyWire.com (Photo by Tayfun Coskun/Anadolu Agency via Getty Images) Facebook Twitter Mail Actress Rose McGowan, one of the many women who accused disgraced movie mogul Harvey Weinstein of rape, broke down in a fiery Twitter post on Wednesday, blasting the Democratic Party for betraying her in the wake of the sexual assault accusation against former Vice President Joe Biden. Last month, Tara Reade claimed that then-Senator Joe Biden sexually assaulted her while she served as an aide in his Senate offices during the Clinton administration. She has since detailed her account in multiple interviews and filed a criminal complaint against the former vice president with the Washington, D.C., police department. A former neighbor of Reade and her brother have publicly stated that Reade told them of the assault in the 1990s. Recently surfaced evidence also revealed that Reade’s mother allegedly called into CNN’s Larry King in the 199os to complain about a prominent senator her daughter had “problems” with. Despite the evidence further lending credibility to Tara Reade’s claims, the Democrats and the mainstream media have largely ignored her or run cover for Joe Biden. On Tuesday, #MeToo movement founder Tarana Burke even went as far to say that the former vice president can be “accountable and electable.” After blasting the Democrats and its #MeToo allies for their hypocrisy in recent weeks, Rose McGowan finally broke down on Wednesday and declared that she no longer recognizes the political party she once called home. “I used to be a proud Democrat. I used to be a proud American,” she began. “I would’ve died for this damn country and its ideals. I was raised to be a proud Democrat. When my youngest brother graduated as a fighter pilot at the Air Force Academy, I wore a Vote John Kerry pin (lol), got into verbal altercations with big men who were mad I was a Democrat. They were twice my size [and] I had to listen to GW Bush give the keynote address [and] John Ashcroft singing his terrible eagle song.” After recalling her strong dislike for Republicans, McGowan then admitted that she no longer feels like there is a party that lines up with her value system. “I was always told it was the Democratic Party that were the good guys, that our papers were The New York Times and The Washington Post,” she said. “But now I know too much. And I feel really quite a sense of loss tonight.” Though she does not identify as a “cynical person,” McGowan denounced both the Republicans and the Democrats for being a “cult.” “Republicans have always been painted as the bad guys, and I’ve always seen them more as a cult,” she said. “But now I realize so are the Democrats and the media. Macro and micro. This is deeper than a cover-up. And I’m sad because there’s death around all corners and shadows in the daytime. It hurts. ” rose mcgowan ?@rosemcgowan I’m really sad, and I’m really tired. I normally share thoughts, but tonight it’s emotion. 43.3K 7:43 PM - Apr 29, 2020 Twitter Ads info and privacy 16.8K people are talking about this The Daily Wire, headed by bestselling author and popular podcast host B
