MONTGOMERY COUNTY, Pa. (WHTM) - A Pennsylvania man is facing election fraud-related charges for allegedly double-voting in the 2020 and 2022 general elections.
On Friday, United States Attorney Jacqueline C. Romero announced that Philip C. Pulley, 62, of Huntington Valley, Pennsylvania, was charged by information with falsely registering to vote, double voting, and election fraud.
The Justice Department says in 2018 while registered to vote in Montgomery County, Pulley also registered to vote in Broward County, Florida. In 2020 Bulley allegedly registered to vote in Philadelphia using a false home address in Philadelphia and social security number.
In the 2020 presidential election, Pulley allegedly requested a mail-in ballot in Philadelphia and voted in both Broward County and Montgomery County. In the 2022 general election, Pulley allegedly voted in both Montgomery and Philadelphia Counties.
If convicted, on each count, Pulley faces a maximum possible sentence of five years of imprisonment, three years of supervised release, a $10,000 to 250,000 fine, and a $100 special assessment.
The case was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Pennsylvania Attorney General’s Office and is being prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Nancy E. Potts and Mark B. Dubnoff, with support from James Price, Senior Deputy Attorney General and Special Assistant United States Attorney.
Pennsylvania's Secretaries of State during both the 2020 and 2022 general elections maintained that there was no significant voter fraud that affected the outcome of any election.
