A Nevada man is facing criminal charges for casting his dead wife’s ballot during the 2020 presidential election.
Donald Kirk Hartle is charged with two felony voter fraud crimes for voting twice, once in the name of his wife Rosemarie Hartle, Nevada Attorney General Aaron Ford (D) said in a statement.
Ford said that voter fraud is rare, but “but when it happens it undercuts trust in our election system and will not be tolerated by my office.”
Hartle previously told local CBS affiliate KLAS in November that a ballot for Rosemarie Hartle had been received by Clark County officials, but that the ballot never arrived at his house. The news outlet found that the ballot was counted, and that her name appeared on the active voter list even though she died of breast cancer in 2017.
“That is pretty sickening to me to be honest with you,” Hartle told the outlet in November. “It made no sense to me, but it lent some credence to what you’ve been hearing in the media about these possibilities and now it makes me wonder how pervasive is this?”

Big deal. There were more dead people than live people who voted for Barack Obama in 2008. That has been well documented. The UNELECTED criminal, Eric Holder covered that up for his boss.
Umm … you guys left out the part that this guy is a Trump supporter, Big Time.
it’s worth noting that Hartle isn’t a nobody in the world of Nevada conservative politics, either: He’s the CFO of the Ahern Family of Companies, a construction business that has twice been fined for violating COVID laws while hosting Trump rallies at its facilities. What’s more, earlier this year Hartle’s boss, Don Ahern, was named finance chairman for the Nevada Republican Party, and formerly served “as an instrumental member of President Donald J. Trump’s finance team” according to the party’s press release at the time.
