(Sioux City, Iowa) The wife of a Woodbury County supervisor will be sentenced on April 1 after being found guilty of 52 counts of election fraud. Jeremy Taylor was running for the Republican nomination for Iowa’s 4th District congressional seat. His wife, Kim Taylor, was found guilty of submitting ballots on behalf of several voters. Jeremy finished third in the race despite Kim’s efforts.
According to court documents and evidence presented at trial, Kim Taylor, 49, of Sioux City, perpetrated a scheme to fraudulently generate votes for her husband in the primary election for Iowa’s 4th U.S. Congressional District in June 2020.
After Taylor’s husband lost in the primary, he ran for Woodbury County Supervisor in the 2020 general election. Taylor again engaged in ballot fraud, causing absentee ballots to be fraudulently requested and cast. Taylor submitted or forced others to submit dozens of voter registrations, absentee ballot request forms, and absentee ballots containing false information. Taylor completed and signed voter forms without voters’ permission and told others they could sign on behalf of absent relatives.
