Utah prosecutors have charged a former county clerk for allegedly shredding and otherwise mishandling ballots from the 2020 and 2022 elections
Utah prosecutors have charged a former county clerk with three felonies and other counts for allegedly shredding and otherwise mishandling ballots from the 2020 and 2022 elections. The alleged misdeeds involved ballots cast by about 5,000 voters in Juab County, a desert area of west-central Utah with about 12,000 residents.
Soon after the 2022 election, a witness allegedly saw Lofgran put 2022 ballots in a “shred bin” in a large closet near the clerk's office. The ballots had to be taken out of the shred bin for a recount but a deputy clerk allegedly saw Lofgran put them back in later. The election reports were done and “we don't need them anymore,' Lofgran allegedly told the deputy clerk, who is unnamed in the charging document. A shredding company took away the shred bins.
