An ongoing CBS4 voter fraud investigation has uncovered a dozen cases where Coloradans are suspected of voting twice. Previous CBS4 Investigations revealed ballots cast in the names of Coloradans who had been dead for months– sometimes years- before votes were cast in their names.
In six of the new cases, voting records show the same people voting twice in Colorado elections. In another six cases, people are suspected of voting in Colorado and another state during the same election cycle. Lincoln Wilson, a registered Republican from Hale, in Northeast Colorado, is accused of voting in both Colorado and Kansas in 2010, 2012 and again in 2014. Wilson told CBS4 he voted in both states, but only “voted on local issues” and “didn’t vote twice for President.” Wilson is one of five Coloradans now charged by the State of Kansas for voting in both states.
Randall Killian pleaded guilty to voting in Douglas County, Colorado and Kansas in the 2012 presidential election. Ron Weems pleaded guilty to voting in Teller County, Colorado and Kansas in both 2012 and 2014. Both men were fined for their offenses. Kansas has also charged James Criswell of Douglas County and Sharon Farris of Denver with double voting. Their cases have not been resolved yet. “You’d be surprised how often people double vote,“ said Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach. “Two of the cases are serial double voters. I think people discover they can get away with it and keep doing it.”
Kobach says his office is “aggressively prosecuting” double voting cases because it’s a crime that “can’t be caught ahead of time." He says after each election, Colorado and Kansas crosscheck voters to identify double ballots and clean up their databases. But Kobach still believes 10,000 people are registered to vote in both Colorado and Kansas. “Any one of those 10,000 people could probably succeed in casting two votes,“ Kobach said. “We want to get the word out, ‘Don’t do it, we’ll catch you.’”
Colorado and Kansas are two of 28 states that share voting data as part of the Interstate Crosscheck program. Colorado also shares voter data with 10 other states in a different program, called Electronic Registration Information Center, or ERIC.
Florida doesn’t participate in either data sharing project. CBS4 compared absentee ballots from Florida with Colorado’s voter rolls and found a suspected double voter with residences in Colorado Springs and Titusville, Florida. The El Paso County Clerk has forwarded that case to prosecutors for review. “Some states haven’t recognized the importance of participating in ERIC and making sure the integrity of the process is ensured,” said Colorado Secretary of State Wayne Williams.
Yet, some people, like Bruce Rickey, are being prosecuted for voting twice in Colorado. Rickey was charged with trying to vote twice in the 2015 Colorado election. Prosecutors say Rickey voted in El Paso County where he lived, and then allegedly tried to vote in Elbert County as well. Court documents say Rickey
All the states should be prosecuting voting fraud.
CBS cares about voter fraud?
So the only party affiliation mentioned was the Republican. Who were the other fraudulent voters voting for …Hottentots?
Kobach has been fighting a good fight...although the lawless courts have rolled back some of his voting safeguards like proof of citizenship.
I voted yesterday in Kansas, and was glad to hand them my ID.
in my quick read thru post, it mentions one guy is registered Repub. It does not mention registered party of other people caught voting twice????
Only one double voter was called out as a Republican. Leads me to believe the rest are all Democrats .
Sounds like the Bill Clinton “ I didn’t inhale” defense re his not voting for certain candidates..

St least one was a Republican.
Note to the democrats/Marxists /liberals/progressives reading this post: Vote fraud and other illegal activities could spark CWII.
Just sayin...

TIP. OF. THE. ICEBURG.
Massive voter fraud perpetrated by power hungry liberal Democrats for decades, wholly unchallenged by the GOP. This massive fraud has been objectively, positively documented now. Make them pay big league.
Lincoln Wilson, (Red Herring) a registered Republican from Hale, in Northeast Colorado, is accused of voting in both Colorado and Kansas in 2010, 2012 and again in 2014.......”
Oh great .... Yeah it’s the Republicans.
Without any means of cross checking, I would think this is very easy to do. You have people who have:
Moved to a different county and are still registered in their old county.
Moved to a different State and are still registered in their old State
Have homes in two States.
Live overseas but are still registered in a State.
Are college student registered at their parents address and newly register at their college.
Have recently deceased relatives who are still registered to vote (in this case they may even still have the deceased’s drivers license or other form of ID).
The comments on the article call out the authors for obvious bias.
To be “fair” to the authors, however, it’s not really news when Democrats cheat.
Colorado voters are stoned, can’t recall previously casting their vote. Can’t be held responsible for their behavior.
Should have each gotten 12 mos. + 1 day...........at least.
Nice find!
I sent it to Drudge.
Only Republican.
