The following is a statement from Kim Westbrook Strach, executive director of the State Board of Elections, in response to the federal grand jury subpoena issued to the State Board regarding the 9th Congressional District election fraud investigation:
“We support the efforts of state and federal authorities to investigate and prosecute crimes against the elections process. State Board staff are compiling records responsive to the federal grand jury subpoena and are prepared to assist federal and state prosecutors in their investigations. We hope that prosecutions in these cases will help restore voters’ confidence in our elections and serve as a strong deterrent to future elections fraud.”
