An election judge in Minnesota is facing charges after allegedly allowing individuals who were not properly registered to vote in the 2024 election. Timothy Michael Scouton, who served as the head election judge for the Badoura Township Precinct in Hubbard County, Minnesota, is being charged with one count of accepting the vote of an unregistered voter and one count of neglect of duty by an election official, both felonies.
According to sources, police were alerted by an election auditor that 11 voters were permitted to vote without completing proper registration forms to authenticate their identity. This incident occurred despite Scouton having completed his election judge training and head election judge training in July.
