’06 election officer pleads guilty to voter fraud conspiracy<\/b><\/p>\n

\nLONDON, Ky. (AP) — An eastern Kentucky man who was an election officer has pleaded guilty to conspiring to commit voter fraud during primary elections two years ago.<\/p>\n

\nActing U.S. Attorney James Zerhusen’s office says 36-year-old Charles Newton Weaver of Manchester admitted agreeing to change votes of voters who were unfamiliar with new electronic voting machines. The prosecutor’s office says Weaver led voters to believe their vote was cast by pressing one button, although a second button was required to cast the vote.<\/p>\n

\nZerhusen’s office says Weaver changed votes after voters left the machines during the 2006 primary elections for county officials in Clay County.<\/p>\n
