He forgot that he voted twice the same day in two different places
The story forgets to mention the political affiliation of this multiple time voter.
Sure, Michael Zore told police, he'd voted twice in last November's election, using the city hall polling stations of two different Milwaukee County suburbs in the space of six hours.
The evidence against him included him signing up to vote using a false address in West Allis, after he'd already voted in Wauwatosa.
But Zore, 44, told a jury Wednesday there was a good reason he shouldn't be convicted of felony counts of double voting and giving a poll worker false information:
He forgot.
"It is hard to believe, I don't discount that at all," Zore's lawyer, Raymond M. Clark, told the jury. "But it did happen." . . . .

You note that they didn't list his party affiliation, but a little googling would have cleared that up for you.

Follow the link to the official transcript of the interrogation.
A few excerpts from how he responded to the West Allis Police detective's questions on political leanings:
Generally: "I tend to be more Republican for the most part" (adding later that he didn't vote a straight ticket).
The Green/Doyle governor's race: "I voted for Rep. Green on that."
The state Senate race between incumbent Tom Reynolds, a Republican, and then-Wauwatosa Ald. Jim Sullivan, a Democrat (Sullivan won): "I had voted for, um, Tom Reynolds in the area."
And so on.
HTH!
