MILWAUKEE (WTAQ) – A judge is not buying a suburban Milwaukee man’s claim that he was insane when he voted 13 times in six elections in 2011 and ’12.
51-year-old Robert Monroe of Shorewood pleaded no contest Monday to six felony election fraud charges.
After a two-day sanity trial, Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Dennis Cimpl ruled Wednesday that Monroe knew he was voting illegally — and he’ll go to prison instead of a mental institution when he’s sentenced February 26th.
The judge refused to accept a doctor’s claim that Monroe had a dissociative disorder when he voted five times for Governor Scott Walker in his 2012 recall election.
