A Miami-Dade resident accused of absentee ballot fraud has accepted a plea deal...
... Deisy Cabrera stood accused of illegally collecting at least 31 absentee ballots for local elections last August. As part of a deal for one year of probation, ... a felony charge of absentee ballot fraud was dropped. Cabrera pled no contest to two misdemeanor charges of possessing more than two ballots.
[Cabrera] is just one of a number of alleged boleteros working local elections in Miami-Dade. Such workers are tasked with legally offering to help voters — typically seniors — fill out ballots or ensure their votes are mailed. But boleteros also have the opportunity to sway or bribe voters, change ballot selections, and forge signatures.
Some have reportedly been spotted delivering stacks of ballots — illegal to possess — to post offices or election headquarters. And multiple candidates in last year’s elections ... were contacted by boleteros offering guaranteed votes for in exchange for money.
Cabrera was pulled over after a tip from a private investigator prompted detectives to surveil her as she collected ballots.... Before delivering them to a local post office, she was spotted submitting a stack of absentee ballot request forms at the Elections Department.
One elderly Hialeah resident [said] Cabrera had attempted to persuade him to vote for incumbent Miami-Dade Mayor Carlos Gimenez (R), who won reelection. Another woman told El Nuevo Herald that Cabrera filled out ballots for her and her husband twice the year before while offering to move them up on a waiting list for public housing.
Cabrera kept notebooks listing voters indicating ...- illiterate, blind, deaf or suffering from Alzheimer’s. An arrest warrant... alleges that one of the ballots ...had been filled out on behalf of an elderly woman who was unresponsive in a nursing home.

"And multiple candidates in last year’s elections told the Herald they were contacted by boleteros offering guaranteed votes for in exchange for money."
Boleteros offer to SELL the candidates votes!!! They are preying on the elderly and infirm to manipulate elections and to make a buck.
Does it EVER say which party she is?
Does it EVER say which party she is?
It is implied she is a Republican. ANd it comes from HuffPo, a Leftist site so you figure they will only attack Republicans.
Her name is familiar to me. Wasn’t she doing the same thing two or three elections back? I’ll check when I get back to a real computer.
If she really WAS a Republican, it would be more than IMPLIED
Boleteros often work for the $$$. They might not care who wins which election.
They are making money selling votes for whom ever will pay them. They can be working for more than one candidate at a time - a two-fer or better.
The Huff-article featured an (R) Boletero. Miami is registered heavily (D)
This will be used to bolster the position of the media facilitators that there is very little election fraud.
.....and how many do not get caught!?
Probation? Should have been fed to the alligators.
OOOH! OOOH! Waving hand. Lemme guess! Comey said it wasn't intentional so no harm done. Am I right?
Bttt.
