Alabama state Rep. David Cole (R) on Tuesday was arrested and charged with voter fraud on accusations he voted in “multiple or unauthorized locations,” according to jail records provided by Madison County Sheriff’s Office.

According to the sheriff’s records, Cole was booked Tuesday afternoon and released on bail amounting to $2,500. The charge is a Class C felony, meaning conviction could result in up to 10 years in prison.

Al.com, a local news outlet, said Attorney General Steve Marshall’s office confirmed he was prosecuting the case.

Yep, such hypocrites. Always screaming "FRAUD FRAUD FRAUD!!!!11!" but when someone on their side gets arrested for it (I feel bad saying "when", because it's always a republicunt), suddenly everyone is quiet, because it "obviously never happened" they never talk about things that don't fit their agenda. But at the same time they always keep talking like they are the ones taking the high road.

Oh, also, of course Biden is guilty without any evidence. AND THE DEEP STATE and FAUXI planted COMMUNIST INSURGENTS and THE SPACE LASERS! ADN HUNTERS LAPTOP!! JAN 6 WAS FBI AND FAUXI PLANTS!!! But at the same time the shaman was NOT A PLANT AND SHOULD BE FREED! Free Lil Marco. MARXIST CHIDEN WAS BOUGHT BY CHINA!!
(I hope the MAQA speech was better this time I'm trying to improve at it)

Your MAGAT raving is vitriolic enough, but it's spelled correctly and uses correct punctuation. Might want to try again.
