Probation for ex-Tucson man who voted twice in 2016 election

TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) — A former Tucson resident has been sentenced to three years of probation for voting twice by mail in the 2016 general election.

State prosecutors said 62-year-old Randy Allen Jumper of Incline Village, Nevada, had pleaded guilty last month to one felony count of attempted illegal voting.

As a part of his sentencing Monday, Jumper’s right to vote in Arizona has been revoked and he’s prohibited from re-registering to vote while on probation.

A state grand jury indicted Jumper last July for voting once in Arizona's Pima County and again in Washoe County, Nevada, in the 2016 election.

Jumper also was charged with making a false declaration by signing a statement that he had not voted more than once.

Under his plea agreement, Jumper agreed to pay a fine of $5,000 plus court-ordered fees and surcharges.

A judge also ordered Jumper to complete no less than 300 hours of community service while on probation.
