A Florida man who tried to get access to a mail-in ballot for his dead wife in order to “test the system” has been charged with voter fraud, authorities said. The Manatee County Sheriff’s Office arrested 62-year-old Larry Wiggins at his home on Oct.1 after he filed two ballot requests and forged his deceased wife’s signature. Manatee County Supervisor of Elections Mike Bennett said he notified the sheriff’s office when voter information confirmed that Wiggins’ wife had been dead for two years, the Sarasota Herald-Tribune reported.
