TUCSON, Ariz. (KGUN) — A Tucson man has been accused of illegal voting.
According to Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich, 45-year-old Kenneth Russell Nelson illegally registered to vote and cast a vote when he was an inmate in the Pima County Jail.

According to an indictment, he had been convicted of a felony in 2007 and had not had his rights restored.
