Two Arizona women, including a sitting city council member, were indicted for their alleged involvement in a 2020 ballot harvesting scheme in Yuma County, state Attorney General Mark Brnovich said on Oct. 19.
A state grand jury charged Gloria Lopez Torres and Nadia Guadalupe Lizarraga-Mayorquin, both of San Luis, with conspiracy and ballot abuse on Oct. 3, the attorney general said in a statement. Under state law, ballot harvesting is considered a class 6 felony; convictions usually carry a penalty of up to two years in prison and up to a $150,000 fine.
