A former Allen County Republican Party official is off to prison for violating the probation he was serving for falsifying election documents.

Douglas T. Foy, the former executive director of the Allen County GOP, was given a three-year suspended prison sentence after he pleaded guilty to 11 counts of falsifying campaign declarations in 2006.

...


Foy was originally arrested after an employee of the Allen County Election Board began reviewing the registration paperwork for candidates in August 2006 and noticed that the signatures on the candidate-declaration forms did not match the signatures on the written-consent forms.

Another employee then contacted the 11 people whose signatures appeared on the candidate forms and asked them to verify their signatures for the election board, according to court documents.

When the employee began to contact the candidates, Foy asked for a list of the candidates she was calling. The candidates went into the office and told officials the signatures on the original forms were not theirs. As a result of the investigation, the candidates’ names were removed from the ballots and Foy was fired.

3. On the election fraud, he got probation, and is being jailed now only because of probation violation

According to the linked article, what sent him to the slammer was being "arrested on charges of driving while intoxicated, reckless driving and being a habitual substance-abuse offender."

Or, as the Top Ten would say, Douglas T. Foy (R-Naturally).
