Elections official fired in Milwaukee over falsified requests for military absentee ballots. A top Milwaukee elections official has been fired after sending falsely obtained military absentee ballots to the home of a Republican state lawmaker who has been an outspoken critic of how the 2020 election was administered, the city’s mayor said Thursday. Kimberly Zapata, deputy director of the Milwaukee Election Commission, requested military ballots for fictitious voters from clerks in nearby municipalities using the state’s MyVote Wisconsin website, Milwaukee Mayor Cavalier Johnson said just days before the midterm elections. The ballots were sent to the home of Republican state Rep. Janel Brandtjen, who chairs of the Assembly elections committee and has voiced support for overturning the results of the 2020 presidential election in the state and promoted conspiracy theories about the same. Earlier this week, Brandtjen’s office said that she had received three ballots for military voters she believed to be fictitious and that the Waukesha County sheriff was investigating. Zapata was fired immediately after the city was made aware that she might have been responsible, and she no longer has access to city computer networks or offices. At this time it is not known what if any political affiliation Zapata has. My guess is she is a MAGA Maggot.
