REXBURG — Two people residing in eastern Idaho have been federally charged for allegedly voting illegally in the 2022 general election.
According to a news release from the United States Attorney’s Office in the District of Idaho, Taralynn Kathleen Bosco, 48, of Rexburg, and Stanley Richard Walton, 82, of Chubbuck, are alleged to have voted in the 2022 general election, even though they were not United States citizens.
The two cases are not related. Each is charged with one count of voting by an alien, which is a class A misdemeanor.
Bosco and Walton are scheduled for initial court appearances on Oct. 26 before U.S. Magistrate Judge Debora K. Grasham of the U.S. District Court for the District of Idaho.
If convicted of the charges of illegal voting by aliens, both face a fine of up to $100,000 and up to one year in prison.
