Michigan man pleads guilty to voting twice in August 2024 primary election

A Michigan man pleaded guilty on Wednesday to a felony charge that he voted twice during last year’s August primary election.

Prosecutors said Frank Prezzato, 68, of St. Clair Shores, voted using his absentee ballot and then showed up at his polling place and voted there as well.

A news release from Attorney General Dana Nessel said Prezzato “acknowledged that he acted recklessly.” As part of a plea agreement, he will serve six months of delayed probation. After that, the charges can be dismissed with prejudice — closing the case permanently — if Prezzato meets the conditions of his probation. His formal sentencing is set for the end of October.

“Voting twice undermines our democratic process,” Nessel said. “My office will continue to prosecute those who violate our voting laws to ensure Michigan voters have confidence in the integrity of our elections.”
