Iberville Parish councilwoman (D) accused of election fraud ahead of 2024 election
BATON ROUGE, La. (Louisiana First) — A Plaquemine councilmember faces allegations of election fraud ahead of the 2024 election.
According to Iberville Parish Sheriff Brett Stassi, Councilwoman Wanda Jones violated Louisiana law after allegedly registering out-of-parish citizens with the Secretary of State’s office.
Investigators with the Secretary of State determined that Jones violated Title 18 of the Louisiana election code, which states that registering to vote in the name of another or fictious name is an example of election fraud.
Iberville Parish District Attorney Tony Clayton and the Secretary of State’s office agreed that Jones violated five felony counts of election fraud.
