A Florida man who was charged with a felony after allegedly requesting a vote-by-mail ballot for his dead wife said on Friday he was just testing the state's voting system, according to a report.

Larry Wiggins, 62, a registered Democrat from Sarasota, Fla., requested the mail-in ballot for his wife this month even though she died in 2018, authorities said. After being released from jail in Manatee County, located about 30 miles south of Tampa, Wiggins told Tampa's WFLA-TV, “I heard so much about ballots being sent in and people just having found them in different places. I feel like I haven’t done anything wrong.”

Unfortunately for him he was not in New York where he would have received a ballot for his dead wife and his dog

So, if he had received the ballot, he would have told election officials to tighten things up, right?

Or California. Saw a tweet from former Ambassador Grenell about a husband and wife receiving ballots although both have been dead more than 10 years.

Same excuse as pedophiles use for child porn - research or testing the system.
Lock this criminal up!

Another scam that doesn’t get any press at all is the one in Hillsborough County where the guy comes in to vote at his assigned polling place on election day and the e-poll book tells the inspector that the guy has already voted. Instead of the official response being “too bad so sad you’re done” as it should be because the system doesn’t make mistakes, the presumption policy -wise is that yes the system could be “wrong”, so we err in favor of the voter and allow him to immediately vote a provisional ballot. Dollars to donuts those “provisionals” don’t get rejected by the so-called “panel” of observers at the county supervisor of elections office. They don’t have the time or the predilection to dicker about each one, they are mostly Democrats, so they just approve them all. So hundreds of these felons get to vote twice and no one knows about it. How did we ever get to this level of corruption?

After my mother passed (January 2019) I was somehow inundated with e-mails addressed to Mom from Nancy Pelosi and the DNC. And the only place I recall using my e-mail address on her behalf was at the funeral home and subsequent estate dealings.

He looks like a person who has dedicated his life to research.

He “feels” like he did no wrong. Typical dem

I wonder when he filled out that ballot and sent it in if it would’ve “felt” wrong.

In a very small way, in this year’s election cycle, I would believe “I did it for research” excuse coming from a Republican, definitely not from a rat. This is due to the 80 million “mail in” ballots being sent out.

Regarding his request, you don’t request the “mail in” ballot the rats are sending, this is the problem.

This Bozo requested an Absentee Ballot which has a few crosschecks in place to catch potential fraud. The average rat often lacks a “thinking cap”, thus gets caught.

Real estate? That rings a bell. “......according to the LA Times, Pelosi’s minimum net worth is $16 million (on a govt salary?)
She just took out a $5 million mortgage. She and husband Paul own at least nine properties, valued at $18 million.

I wonder if she's got inside deals to buy property of deceased persons cheaply?

I’m surprised he was charged with anything.

Illegal aliens, felons and the dead being allowed to vote.
Frantically losing, disallowing and destroying military ballots.

If the democrats believe that their agenda for our country is something that a majority of Americans desire, why do they have to resort to massive voter fraud to achieve it?

Of course there is no violation of the law since his intent was not to commit voter fraud. At least that’s the way it works in Ohio
