Democrats indicted for trying to placing fake Tea Party candidates on the ballot

Democrats indicted for trying to put fake Tea Party candidates on the Michigan ballot.

The indictment alleges that the pair attempted to place two county commission candidates, Aaron W. Tyler and Ruth Ann Spearman, and a state senate candidate, Johnathan M. Young, on the ballot without the candidates' knowledge. The two men forged the signatures on the affidavit of identity and falsely swore under oath to qualify them to run, the indictment says. . . .
