Minnesota Election Judge PLEADS GUILTY to Letting Unregistered Voters Cast Ballots in 2024 Election

In another devastating blow to the Democrats’ endless claims that there’s no election fraud, a Minnesota election judge has now pleaded guilty to a felony for deliberately allowing unregistered voters to cast ballots on Election Day.

Timothy Michael Scouton, 65, of Nevis, Minnesota, the head election judge in rural Badoura Township, Hubbard County, admitted in court on Monday that he allowed 11 unregistered individuals to vote without meeting the most basic legal requirements.

Scouton was responsible for ensuring that all voting procedures complied with Minnesota law.

Instead, prosecutors say he accepted ballots from voters who had not completed legally required registration forms, a fundamental safeguard in the election process.

The Gateway Pundit reported in 2024 that the investigation was initiated after Hubbard County Auditor Kay Rave discovered discrepancies in the election materials returned by Scouton.

Among the ballots and documents was a glaring omission: no completed voter registration forms for the 11 individuals who had reportedly cast ballots, according to KSTP.com.

According to court filings, Scouton underwent both basic election judge training and head judge training earlier this year.

On November 7, Rave alerted authorities after discovering that the required registration documentation for the 11 individuals was missing.

Scouton was then arrested and charged with two felonies for this outrageous scheme.

Scouton ultimately admitted in court this week that he allowed the votes to be cast without proper registration, acknowledging that his actions violated the law.

As part of a plea agreement:

Scouton pleaded guilty to one felony count of allowing unregistered voting
A second charge of neglect of duty will be dismissed
He now faces up to 5–10 years in prison and fines up to $10,000, depending on sentencing outcomes
His sentencing is scheduled for May 18, and he has already been barred from serving as an election judge in the future.
