    A Republican activist who supports former President Donald Trump in The Villages is facing voter fraud accusations that he forged the signature on his dead father’s mail ballot in the 2020 election.

    Robert Rivernider Jr., 58, was charged last week with forgery of a public record and fraud in connection with casting a vote, according to court records in Sumter County. A convicted felon released from prison in May 2020, he owes $22 million in restitution to victims of an investment scam, court records show.

    His latest charges stem from a ballot that was postmarked Oct. 23, 2020, four days after Rivernider’s father died, Walter Forgie, chief assistant state attorney for the Fifth Judicial Circuit, said on Tuesday.

    My question for the right is why are you guys always committing voter fraud yet you act like the left are the ones that are doing it? The Villages is notorious for fraud

    GOP accusations are always just an admission of guilt.

    Exactly ... how many times have we heard the GOP claims --without offering any evidence-- of all the dead democrats voting.

    These morons are so convinced it's true, and easy to get away with, they do it themselves and justifying it as "offsetting the democrats cheating" ... and get caught.

    I wouldn't be surprised if Trump got less than 70 million legal votes.

    Also says he is cast his own ballot in 2022 even though he owes $22 million in restitution from a felony fraud case. I thought republicans made that illegal?

    Guy was already a convicted felon who just got out of prison in 2020 (early released due to COVID?). His crime? Fraud. $25 million worth.

    So of course he’s a GOP “activist” and passionate Trump supporter. :emoji_joy::emoji_joy:

    This “political party” is something else man.

    Only for certain groups. I'm expecting a DeSantis press conference on this at any minute now

    Different definitions of voter fraud. You are using the common definition of illegal voting. To the Right, any voter from a demographic that leans Dem is by definition voting fraudulently

    On his Twitter page, where he claims he’s defending the constitution and thanks trump for his early release from prison, he’s got a link to a go fund me page to help him get back into life out of prison

    Nobody has ever denied the fact that the Demoncrats have the more news media behind them or should I say more fake news media? Therefore more of these kind of stories are going to be spread.

    The funny thing is I have actually seen these types of shenanigans being pulled by the left....My daughter in laws sister is retarded and has never had the mental capacity to go to school much less register to vote yet last election there was a mail in ballot delivered to my sons house with Bella's name on it. Come to find out she is a registered Demoncrat. Seems someone at one of her past nursing homes was probably up to no good.
