A 22-year-old Minneapolis man has been charged with felonies over accusations that he helped 13 people submit absentee ballots that were fraudulently cast for the 2018 election, then ultimately purged and never recast.
Abdihakim A. Essa was charged in Hennepin County District Court last week with intentionally making or signing a false certificate in the submission of the absentee ballots during a few weeks’ time in the summer before the Nov. 6, 2018, general election.
Essa told a suspicious election worker in the Hennepin County Government Center that he was working for a campaign and signing his father’s name as a witness on the ballots, according to the charges.
