PLAQUEMINE -- City Court Judge William Dupont confirmed Monday he signed three arrest warrants last week alleging election offenses in Iberville Parish.
The state Department of Elections is conducting an on-going investigation into alleged vote-buying in the parish.
Election officials have said they are looking into the actions of at least four elected officials, among others.
No arrests have been made.
Dupont confirmed that he signed the warrants, but declined to identity the people named in them.
He said he does not know who has the warrants now.
State elections fraud investigator Greg Malveaux, who is leading the investigation in the parish, declined to identify the people named in the warrants or what would happen now that they are signed. He said his office was busy monitoring absentee voting for the Dec. 7 election.
"Then we'll go from there," he said.
Fraud investigators began looking at Iberville Parish after reports reached them that someone overheard another person soliciting individuals to buy their votes.
Malveaux has taken several voluntary statements from individuals claiming that an elected official offered to pay them between $5 and $10 to vote absentee in the Oct. 5 primary.
Malveaux has said those arrested will face prosecution on counts of bribery of voters.
