A Pennsylvania man was sentenced to five years probation after he admitted to illegally casting his dead mother’s ballot for former president Donald Trump during the 2020 presidential election. Bruce Bartman, 70, provided an allocution in front of Delaware County Court of Common Pleas Judge George Pagano during a Friday hearing. Bartman apologized for his conduct and pleaded guilty to two counts of perjury and one count of unlawful voting. “I was isolated last year in lockdown,” the defendant told the court in proceedings originally reported by The Philadelphia Inquirer. “I listened to too much propaganda and made a stupid mistake.” Bartman’s attorney, Samuel Stretton, also said his client had made “a very misguided political mistake” that was “very stupid.” The judge, for his part, lauded the defendant for admitting to his wrongdoing and said the case “goes to the heart of our democracy.” In November 2020, it was actually the Trump campaign that pointed out Bartman’s dead mother had somehow cast a ballot. In an interview with The New York Times late last year, Bartman feigned ignorance about the incident and suggested that any voting issues were attributable to the actions of various Democrats. As Law&Crime previously reported, Bartman was accused late last year of registering his mother Elizabeth Bartman and his mother-in-law Elizabeth Weihman, both of whom were deceased at the time, via the Keystone State’s online voter registration system. Each of the dead women, who had been dead for some 12 and two years, respectively, were illegally registered as Republicans. Delaware County District Attorney Jack Stollsteimer (D) alleged that Bartman was ultimately only able to cast a vote for his mother. Using his mother’s driver’s license number, Bartman accessed the Pennsylvania online voting portal and registered without incident due to what Stollsteimer termed a “flaw” in the system which was unable to catch the driver’s license as belonging to a dead person. The DA issued a lengthy statement last December indirectly addressing numerous, spurious claims by Trump and his allies that voter and/or electoral fraud had run rampant during the 2020 electoral contest between the unsuccessful 45th president and victorious eventual President Joe Biden.
Ha ha. Now imagine if you will, hundreds of thousands (if not millions) of Dead Democrats voting. Quite the difference huh?
I'd love to hire a hypnotist and have him put the kibosh on this dude by having him sign over all his money to me, because he's too stupid to deserve anything in life. "Listened to too much propaganda"? Because you were "isolated last year"? Fuck off, maroon.
