Seattle woman to perform service for dog vote protest
A 66 year old Seattle woman faces up to 90 days in jail for registering her dog to vote. She reached a deal: 10 hours of community service, a 250 dollar fine, and abstaining from violations for a year in exchange for dismissal of the false statement charge. The case concerns registering Duncan M. McDonald, her Australian shepherd, to vote in 2006 to protest a law change she opposed. She admitted the act after an official called, but the dog still received absentee ballots for a school bond election.
