Este es un caso interesante donde un Democrata es agarrado con las manos en la masa... Uno de sus alicates se lanzon en harakiri, pero las investigaciones llegaran a donde lleguen, y no se sorprendan si el resultado es la perdida de su cargo.

Florida Rep. Joe Garcia's top staffers reportedly implicated in 2012 ballot fraud

Rep. Joe Garcia, D-Fla., asked his chief of staff to resign on Friday after he and another staffer were implicated in a scheme to manipulate the 2012 primary election by submitting fraudulent ballot requests, The Miami Herald reports.


Earlier on Friday, law enforcement investigators raided the home of Garcia's communications director, Giancarlo Sopo, and his 2012 campaign manager as part of an ongoing investigation into the fraudulent ballots.

The chief of staff, Jeffrey Garcia, who is not related to the congressman, agreed to resign after claiming responsibility for the plot, Joe Garcia told the newspaper.

Jeffrey Garcia also worked with the campaign of Rep. Patrick Murphy, another south Florida Democrat, but Murphy has not been implicated in the fraud.

"I'm shocked and disappointed about this," Joe Garcia told the Herald. "This is something that hit me from left field. Until today, I had no earthly idea this was going on."

Joe Garcia said Soto will probably be put on administrative leave.

In February, a Herald investigation discovered that a large proportion of the 2,552 fraudulent ballot requests for the 2012 primary election originated in Miami. The ballot requests targeted primarily Democratic voters in Garcia's congressional district. Later, fraudulent requests submitted by foreign Internet Protocol addresses targeted Republican voters in two Florida state House districts.

None of the fraudulent requests were filled because they were deemed suspicious by the elections department. Garcia won the primary and ultimately defeated former Republican Rep. David Rivera in the general election, who was plagued by ethical questions throughout his short tenure.
