An Arizona man was sentenced with an 18-month prison sentence on Sept. 12 for illegally voting during the 2020 presidential election, according to the state attorney general’s office.

Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich said Roberto Garcia, 35, completed a voter registration form and falsely indicated that he wasn’t convicted of a felony. He also falsely said he had his voting rights restored, according to a Sept. 13 press release from Brnovich’s office, adding that he cast a vote during the 2020 general election.
