Leslie McCrae Dowless Jr., 63, was accused of directing workers to collect and mail in other people’s absentee ballots during the 2018 Republican congressional primary and the 2016 general election. It is against the law in North Carolina for anyone other than the voter or a close relative to handle a mail-in ballot, a measure aimed at guarding against manipulation.

 

Harris hired Dowless despite repeated warnings from the candidate’s son, now a federal prosecutor in Raleigh, that Dowless was probably resorting to illegal methods.

 

In fact, Dowless had been on the radar of state elections investigators since 2010, when he was suspected of vote-buying but never charged. That was one of at least a half-dozen instances over the past nine years that prosecutors and election officials received complaints of serious irregularities in Bladen County.

 

The four other people charged in the case were paid by Dowless to collect ballots during the spring of 2018, when Dowless and his team were on the Harris campaign payroll, and during the 2016 general election, when Dowless himself successfully ran for a local soil and water conservation post, prosecutors said.

Franklin County Sheriff: Won't enforce 'stay at home' order

PASCO, Wash. – Franklin County Sheriff J.D. Raymond says he will not be enforcing Gov. Jay Inslee's "stay at home" orders nor "guidelines that infringe on your constitutional rights."

The move comes as Franklin County commissioners voted to ignore Inslee's order, county-wide, according to a Facebook post by county commissioner Clint Didier.

It's a move the governor's office stresses is illegal.

Raymond opened a two-page letter to his constituents Monday by declaring he does believe COVID-19 is real and "needs to be dealt with appropriately."

 

"I believe that social distancing and taking appropriate and proper steps to slow the spread of the virus and control its transmission is important," Raymond said.

But Raymond, who has been sheriff for six years there in the Eastern Washington county that includes part of the Tri-Cities area, also says he believes that adults are "capable of policing" themselves and that as adults "we have the capability of adjusting our habits to these trying times."
