Arizona women to be sentenced in 2020 ballot harvesting scheme

Two Arizona women found guilty of ballot harvesting will learn their fate Thursday when they are sentenced.

Guillermina Fuentes, a former mayor and current school board member, along with Alma Juarez, illegally collected four early ballots in southern Arizona during the 2020 presidential election.

Ballot harvesting is a practice that was once used by both parties to boost voter turnout, though it became illegal in 2016. State law prohibits anyone but a family member or caregiver from returning early ballots for another person.
