    N.C. election official sentenced for urging Mexican citizen to vote in U.S.

    She got a two month jail sentence


    Federal prosecutors won a two-month prison sentence this week against a North Carolina elections official who pushed a Mexican citizen to register and vote in the 2016 election.

    Denslo Allen Paige, 66, who had worked as a precinct official in Wake County, pleaded guilty to aiding and abetting Guadalupe Espinosa-Pena to sign up.
    Prosecutors said Paige was aware Mr. Espinosa-Pena wasn’t eligible to vote, but told him that “if he wanted his voice to be heard, he needed to vote.”
    She then helped him fill out his form — but had him leave the box for citizenship blank. Paige submitted the form, and at some point the box for citizenship was checked, prosecutors say.
    “When a non-citizen votes in a federal election it serves to dilute and devalue the vote of American citizens and places the decision making authority of the American electorate in the hands of those who have no right to make those choices,” said Robert J. Higdon Jr., the U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of North Carolina.

    She should have gotten a lot more jail time than that. And a massive fine.

    She should be stripped of her citizenship.
    Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.

    you've left out a couple of juicier details:

    ~snip~
    Paige’s plea was entered Thursday.
    Also Thursday Dieudonne Soifils, 72, a Haitian citizen who registered and voted illegally in the 2012 and 2016 elections, was sentenced to 12 months’ probation.
    Soifils, Paige and Mr. Espinosa-Pena were all registered as Democrats.
    They were among 19 people indicted in North Carolina last year for fraudulent voting activities.
    Eighteen of them were accused of voting as non-citizens, while Paige was accused of aiding in illegal voting.
    Of the 19, 14 were registered Democrats.
    Logan Churchwell, spokesman for the Public Interest Legal Foundation, an election integrity group, said prosecutions for those who aid illegal voting are unusual.

    This is happening all over the country and im sure we havent touched the tip of the iceberb. This is the reason and the only reason democrats want unlimited illegal immigration and have sanctuary cities and just GIVE THEM OUR MONEY and allow them in to add greatly to our crime and violent crime rates.
