A Wisconsin election official who said she was just trying to point out flaws in the voting system when she sent three military absentee ballots with bogus information to a Trump-allied state lawmaker, has been convicted by a jury of felony misconduct in office and three misdemeanor fraud charges.

The jury reached its verdict in State of Wisconsin vs. Kimberly Zapata on Wednesday, according to a review of the online public docket for the Milwaukee County Circuit Court.

First charged in 2022, state prosecutors accused Zapata, then the deputy director for the Milwaukee Election Commission, of using an official work computer that October to access the website, My Vote Wisconsin. From there, she procured three ballots for military absentee voters. The ballots were mailed to clerks in three towns and contained fake information, including the voter names and Social Security numbers, that she added.
