Fraudulent Judge
Can this be grounds for impeachment? Sound politics linked to a report about a federal judge appointed by Jimmy Carter who provided false information when registering to vote. She has been illegally voting in the wrong district for years and claimed her place of work as a residency. This is a felony in Washintgton.
Here is an excerpt from the story:
The Fletchers claim their residence is the King County Administration Building and that their mailing address is 1010 5th Ave. in Seattle, which is an United States Courthouse Building. Providing false registration application information is a Class C felony.'This is not a trivial matter,' said Bob Edelman, election reform project manager at EFF who filed the complaints. 'Apparently she registered with a false address for privacy reasons, but that is no excuse for breaking the law. She could have applied for address confidentiality, but she chose to ignore the law instead.
'What this also means is that the Fletchers have been casting illegal votes because their true residence is in a different legislative district,' he said.
Judge Fletcher was appointed to the 9th Circuit by President Jimmy Carter in 1979.
