The former Kansas mayor who voted as a non-citizen has been taken into custody by federal immigration authorities. Joe Ceballos, the ex-mayor of Coldwater, Kansas, surrendered to Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in Wichita on Wednesday, fulfilling an order issued earlier this week.
The 55-year-old green card holder had pleaded guilty last month to illegally voting in several elections while serving as the town's mayor. Ceballos resigned from his position in December after the charges were filed, ending a political career that saw him win two terms in the small conservative community of Coldwater.
