Republican congressional candidate's wife convicted of 52 counts of voting fraud

All that Republican screaming about voter fraud and stolen elections can’t quite hide the fact that most cases of actual fraud seem to come from Republicans. The latest case in point: Kim Taylor, the wife of an Iowa county supervisor and former congressional candidate, was just convicted of 52 counts in a ballot fraud case.

Taylor’s husband Jeremy ran in a Republican congressional primary in 2020 and, when he lost that race, ran successfully for county supervisor. Federal prosecutors say that in both races, she “submitted or caused others to submit dozens of voter registrations, absentee ballot request forms, and absentee ballots containing false information. Taylor completed and signed voter forms without voters’ permission and told others that they could sign on behalf of relatives who were not present.”

The Des Moines Register reports that Taylor, a native of Vietnam, targeted “voters of Vietnamese heritage with limited English comprehension.”
