Michele Toomey Charged with Election Fraud in Alabama

Erica Waterbury from Wilson County, Tennessee, has been charged with voter fraud for allegedly voting or registering illegally, with potential consequences of two to four years in prison and a $5,000 fine. The indictment suggests she may have falsely claimed residency, which is a violation of election laws. Meanwhile, Michele Toomey, a nursing home employee in Mobile County, Alabama, faces multiple charges, including identity theft and forgery, for allegedly forging the signature of an incapacitated resident to obtain an absentee ballot. The victim had previously been ruled ineligible to vote by probate court. Toomey's bail has been set at $22,000, and she was released shortly after her booking. These cases highlight ongoing concerns regarding election integrity and voter fraud in different states.
