Sioux City Republican activist gets light prison sentence for 52 acts of voter fraud

She could have gotten five years for every count, but gets four months for all of them.

Please, no more complaints about a 'two tiered justice system'.

A Sioux City Republican activist who was convicted of illegally filling in ballots escaped a far harsher punishment on Monday for her 52 acts of voter fraud, which could have carried a five-year prison sentence for each.

Instead, Federal Judge Leonard Strand sentenced Kim Phoung Taylor to serve four months in federal prison as part of her punishment.

According to federal court documents, Taylor, 50, will serve four months at Waseca Federal Correctional Institution in Minnesota, four months of home confinement, and two years of supervised release all of which will run concurrently.

Each count of voter fraud was punishable by up to five years in prison. Strand said he was lenient on his sentencing because Taylor has no criminal history and she needs to raise a family with school-age children, according to Siouxland Public Media.

Kim Taylor concocted various election schemes in 2020 to get her husband, Jeremy Taylor, elected, including voting on ballots issued to members of Sioux City’s Vietnamese community.

 

She is damn lucky she wasn't white. Real damn lucky. This crime should have resulted in years in prison. This was a slap on the wrist and reprehensible.

 

One case does not prove anything.

 

Tell that to Trumpers. 62 lost court cases did not convince them that Biden won and Trump lost.

 

How many times have I hear you guys on the right, in Hunter's case, ONE CASE, 'two tiered'?

I don't see you making that argument against Hunter.

 

Hunter appears to be getting special treatment because he is the son of a president. The Sioux City republican is just an unknown person of thousands. There is a difference in sample size.

 

The only double standard here is yours.

 

You have a new thread on Trump just about every day. I don't see you posting threads about the millions of other people in the US and I am fairly sure that there are other people who should also be considered evil. That means you have a double standard according ot your logic.

 

Yeah, I'm sure there are millions of evil souls on the planet, but only ONE IS A CANDIDATE FOR US PRESIDENT.

Clearly you don't have your priorities in order.

 

IOW, MSM = Fake News

Sep 15, 2022 — A handy compendium of reasons that Americans can be confident in the results of the last presidential election.

 

I think that's ok if she had no prior criminal history. Her children, in this case, shouldn't pay for her stupidity.

 

She's damn lucky she wasn't a Democrat. Right about now, Breitbart, Fox, Alex Jones, Tucker... the BULK of the wingnut media would be demanding something just short of the death penalty, and for the judge to resign, be disbarred and himself do some jail time. Her picture would be a MEME in Trump's rallies that would be displayed until one of his MAGA-nuts decided to take "punishment" into their own hands.

 

Its proof of voter fraud, just not the kind of proof the magats were hoping for

 

Wait? I thought voter fraud didn't matter because it happens in such small quantities. 1 person x 52 instances does sure sound like a lot especially if you multiply that by 1000s of people. and these people want to pretend 2020 wasn't stolen
SAD!

 

And only one is the son of the president who is getting special treatment because he is the son of the president.

 

Nice try at propaganda and misdirection...
There were 62 cases dismissed for lack of standing...not lack of the evidence presented... they evidence were never touched by the courts... lack of standing means " a party must have something to lose, The party has standing because they will be directly harmed by the conditions for which they are asking the court for relief."

 

Defend the fraudster all you want. She is an idiot doing this in a State which has voted Republican for the past 60 years. Idolatry makes people do stupid things. So, no, it didn't matter, but it helped shine light on who the actual cheaters are. People often accuse others of what they are guilty of. Its a form of deflection.

 

Did I defend someone? I don't recall doing that. You may want to re-read.

 

it did not affect the outcome of the election, but it's still a crime and somehow this republican got a hand slap for it

 

exactly, this was cult type behavior, Trump would have won there no mater what, but she still did this, crazy

 

Wait, so now fraud is real and its a big deal? Now it affects things? Can you folks please make up your mind? Oh wait, i think i got it. Fraud is fluid? like Gender?

 

She did it for self aggrandizement and should have gotten a stiffer sentence, but politically connected sociopaths are rarely punished properly. Especially democrooks.

 

always has been, seems the right only thinks it's a big deal if it's a dem doing it, sad!

 

I think its a big deal for ANYONE to do it but its very good of you to try and speak for an entire political party. NICE!

 

Whom are you describing as " magats " ?
