Former Office Holder Charged With Voter Fraud

The problems Alabama is seeing with corrupt officials is not limited to the Legislature and gambling. No, a former Pike County Commissioner was arrested for voter fraud in connection with her 2008 election, which she won by 10 votes. The victory was later overturned by courts that found more than 10 fraudulent ballots.

Former County Commissioner Karen Berry has been charged with voter fraud and perjury in connection with her 2008 bid for office.

Berry turned herself in to the Pike County Jail Tuesday on charges of absentee ballot fraud and first-degree perjury. According to information from the District Attorney, she has reached a plea agreement on the charges, although the agreement has yet to be presented to a judge.

Just to let you know that corruption is still out there... Some politicians let that power go to their heads, and they begin to think anything they want to do is okay.

And haven't we seen enough examples of THAT recently?
