Las Vegas man sentenced for voting twice in 2020 election

A Las Vegas man was sentenced Wednesday for casting two ballots in the 2020 presidential election.

The Nevada Secretary of State’s office said Mark White was found guilty of Attempted Voting More Than Once at Same Election after casting a ballot in Las Vegas and in Kingman, Arizona.

White was sentenced by Judge Jennifer Schwartz to probation not to exceed 18 months and a 12 to 36 month suspended sentence.

Secretary Francisco Aguilar said it is important for Nevada to investigate any potential instances of fraud so that the state can continue to run “some of the most secure elections in the country.”

“I’m grateful to the law enforcement officers in the Secretary of State’s office for all of their effort on elections cases, and to the Attorney General’s Office for showing what happens when you try to undermine our democracy.” Aguilar said in a statement.
