Cincinnati poll worker sentenced to 5 years for voter fraud in presidential elections

She boasted that she voted twice in last November's presidential election. She was charged with repeatedly voting illegally over three elections using the names of others, including her sister who has been in a coma for a decade.

Now 58-year-old Melowese Richardson, a veteran Cincinnati poll worker, will be spending the next five years in prison for voter fraud.

"You were the lifeguard, to make sure the system was conducted fairly, the greatest system on earth, the free election system," declared Court of Common Pleas Judge Robert P. Ruehlman, who sentenced Richardson to the five-year term. She faced up to 12 years behind bars after pleading no contest to four state counts in May.

"Your job was to make sure it was conducted fairly, but what did you do? You used this position of lifeguard, this position of trust to vote illegally."

Richardson's sister has been in a coma since 2003, and authorities said that the votes Richardson cast using her name counted in both the 2008 and 2012 presidential elections. She was also accused of illegally voting in November's election in the names of other people, including her granddaughter India Richardson, who told Fox News that "it wasn't a big deal."

But prosecutors ended up charging Richardson with multiple voter fraud counts for voting both in person, and by absentee ballot, in November.

In February, Richardson admitted on camera to a local TV station that in November, "I voted twice... I, after registering thousands of people, certainly wanted my vote to count, so I voted. I voted at the polls." But she claimed there "was no intent on my part to commit any voter fraud."

"I'll fight it for Mr. Obama and for Mr. Obama's right to sit as president of the United States."

In court, Ruehlman made it clear that no one would condone her abuse of the democratic process, especially the candidate she supported.

"I really believe, President Obama, if he was asked about this today, he would be appalled. He would not want anybody to cheat to get him elected," said Ruehlman.

Looking directly at Richardson, the judge said that she is "supposed to be the guardian of the voting system, but 'Hey, I'm Melowese Richardson, I like President Obama.' That's fine, a lot of people like President Obama and they voted for him fair and square, but 'I'm Melowese Richardson, I'm going to take the law in my own hands, I'm going to use my position of trust at the Board of Elections, and I'm going to cheat.'"

Richardson tried to defend herself by telling the court "I knew way before November 7 that Obama would win," and cited her 25 years of work as a poll worker for the Hamilton County Board of Elections.

Board officials and Richardson's fellow poll workers voiced dismay.

"The personal facts of the situation are very sad," said Board of Elections Executive Director Amy L. Searcy, who called the case "heartbreaking."

"We considered her one of us and we relied on her. She took the training we gave her, and the experience, and turned that against us to conduct herself in an illegal fashion."

Searcy told Fox News that the board will continue "to investigate potential voter suppression and voter fraud," and said that the message of the charges filed against Richardson, her conviction and sentencing, show "that the integrity of the Hamilton County elections has been maintained."

Two other voters in Cincinnati have faced charges of illegally voting in November's election, including a nun who pled guilty. Authorities are currently investigating several dozen more cases of potential voter fraud in Hamilton County, stemming from the November election.

"I really believe, President Obama, if he was asked about this today, he would be appalled. He would not want anybody to cheat to get him elected," said Ruehlman.

I'm betting Obama would have looked the other way and when people were distracted by one of the many other scandals in his Administration, he would have promoted Ms. Richardson to some office in DC that didn't need Senate approval. AS he seems to like people that are willing to Cheat the system on his behalf, alto she would have had to get a bit better at LYING to cover her illegal actions and I'm sure Jarrett could have taken her under her wing and taught her.

Mass. authorities, however, got a tip from someone that knows the woman and after a bit of investigation decided to arrest her for the fraud.

There have been other cases of fraud against the $64 million fund to help victims of the attack and because of that the Mass. Attorney General is looking at all payments made to assure they were legitimate… though, maybe they should have done that in the first place… maybe?

So they cut a check to the woman for $480,000 based solely on records she submitted claiming she'd suffered these injuries? That's the means test the state of MA has applied to the payouts?

All I can say is, true government leadership. :roll:

Since we know Obama wouldn't want it fixed I'm guess you mean her job would be to IMPLEMENT it. :wink:
