Third Case Of Voter Fraud Tried In Fond du Lac County

A third person in Fond du Lac County has been convicted of voter fraud in the November 3, 2020 election.

Today Fond du Lac County District Attorney Eric Toney announced that Sam Wells was convicted of Election Fraud –Falsify Voter Registration stemming from Wells illegally registering his residential address as a P.O. Box and voting in Fond du Lac County, despite never having residing in the ward where he voted and not even residing in Fond du Lac County at all.

Wells was originally charged with felony election fraud but the charge was amended to misdemeanor election fraud reflecting the defendant was otherwise eligible to vote and that his vote would not have impacted the results of the election.

The Court could have sentenced up to 6 months in jail and a fine up to $1,000.

Wells was sentenced to a fine of $300 and court costs.

Two other defendants have been convicted of voter fraud from the November 2020 election in Fond du Lac County. One defendant that did not live in Fond du Lac County, illegally registered their residential voting address with a Fond du Lac County P.O. Box and then voted in Fond du Lac County, despite not living in Fond du Lac County. The other defendant illegally voted while serving his felony sentence.

Both defendants were convicted and sentenced by a Tony Evers appointed judge.
