In a sparkling silver dress, the homecoming queen at J.M. Tate High School in Cantonment, Fla., stood on the football field on a brisk evening in late October to accept her crown.

But among the students, whispers had already begun spreading about her victory. The homecoming queen had bragged for years about abusing the access her mother had to student records as an assistant principal in the same school system, witnesses later told investigators.

Now, witnesses said, she was boasting about using the same access to cast hundreds of ballots in her own election.

On Monday, the 17-year-old senior and her mother, Laura Rose Carroll, 50, were arrested and charged with fraudulently accessing confidential student information, according to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement.

Oh, now the courts can be bothered to consider the issue of election fraud.

Guess the Washington Compost fails to see the irony in this story.

A future RAT candidate for office. Nothing like getting an early start.

From the article: "While instances of voter fraud in U.S. elections are vanishingly rare,..."

Wonder who the author, Jaclyn Peiser, voted for?

While instances of voter fraud in U.S. elections are vanishingly rare, this is the latest scheme to rock a high school election in recent years.

Wow...

[dragnet2]

This is at the high school level...Amateurs...

One can imagine the amount of fraud at higher levels in government.

She should lose the homecoming queen title.

But I think in honor of a fine hacking job and getting her mother involved, she should get the title of ...

Nerd Queen

[MrHead]

Mom was the assistant principal, probably not much of a hack.

[coloradan]

It’s not hacking if her mom had legit access to the records ... it’s corruption. Still a bright career in Democratic politics in their future, though.

What about the Pennsylvania mother who deep faked compromising pictures to get her daughter’s rivals kicked off the cheerleading squad?

Men wouldn’t do that. Well maybe crazy sports dads attacking referees or telling their sons to injure opponents on the field comes from the same place. But at least it’s during the game.

Idiots.

Idiots.
