Pasco woman charged with casting illegal ballots in 2024 election

A woman from Pasco is facing multiple charges after she was accused of casting illegal ballots in the 2024 election.

Esperanza Contreras, 52, is an apartment manager in Pasco. According to the charges obtained by CBS News, she allegedly filled out ballots for tenants at her apartment complex without their knowledge.

According to the Franklin County Sheriff’s Office, she admitted to completing at least four ballots, though only three were returned. Two were counted, and one was rejected for a mismatched signature.

The investigation began after officials noticed that a tenant had voted in two states, Washington and Oregon.
