Woman arrested under controversial Florida voter fraud program pleads 'no contest,' man heads to tri
Two of the six controversial voter fraud cases in Hillsborough County came before a judge Monday morning.
They are among 20 people arrested in August under a controversial election fraud program launched by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. The governor said the people charged were convicted of murder or a felony sexual offense and therefore exempt from a constitutional amendment that restores voting rights to some felons.
Romona Oliver, who was seen on police body camera video showing confusion over her arrest, pleaded no contest to a felony charge of voting by unqualified elector. The state agreed to no prison time and no fines.
Her first charge of false affirmation in connection with election was dismissed, according to her attorney, Mark Rankin.
She did not want to move forward with a jury trial, Rankin said.
