One of two suspects in Mesa County election fraud scandal pleads guilty
GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. (KREX) – In a hearing that lasted less than 10 minutes, Vicki Stuart – one of two suspects in a 2024 election fraud case – pled guilty for her role in the scheme.
Stuart and her friend, Sally Maxedon, were accused of stealing residents’ ballots and filling them out before turning them in to the Mesa County Clerk and Recorder’s Office.
As part of the plea hearing, Stuart had 32 counts dropped, but she pled guilty to one count of identity theft and forgery, respectively. Stuart’s other charges included an attempt to influence a public servant.
Stuart said she doesn’t dispute the charges, telling Judge Brian Flynn, “I feel guilty for the part I played.”
