Two Arrested for Forged Signatures in Florida and Kansas Petition Drives

Jamie Johnson and George Andrews face multiple felony charges for allegedly forging voter signatures in efforts to influence ballot measures.

Johnson and Andrews are accused of submitting fraudulent petitions in both Florida and Kansas.
The petitions were part of campaigns for an abortion rights measure in Florida and the No Labels party in Kansas.
Authorities have detained Johnson in Nebraska and Andrews in Florida, each on $150,000 bail.
Kansas Attorney General seeks to extradite Johnson for prosecution in Kansas.
Neither petition drive depended on the forged signatures to meet their required thresholds.
