A Minnesota woman pleaded guilty to voting fraud by submitting her dead mother’s ballot, citing grief after losing both parents in 2024.
A 51-year-old Minnesota woman, Danielle Christine Javorina, pleaded guilty to voter fraud for submitting an absentee ballot in her deceased mother’s name after her mother died in August 2024.
Election officials detected the fraud after cross-checking voter rolls with death records, revealing the ballot was mailed in September.
Javorina, who admitted to listing herself as the witness on her mother’s ballot and her mother as the witness on her own, was sentenced to up to three years of supervised probation, an $885 fine, restitution, a psychological evaluation, and required to read a book on voting and write a 10-page essay on democracy.
Two additional charges were dropped under a plea agreement.
Her defense cited emotional distress after losing both parents in 2024, and experts note such cases are extremely rare, with no evidence of widespread voter fraud.
