Madison, Wisconsin - On Monday, Wisconsin State Representative Sylvia Ortiz-Velez (D-Milw), 48, filed an election fraud complaint with the Wisconsin Election Commission (WEC) against Ismael Luna, 26, the candidate and Democrat nominee for the the 8th State Assembly District claiming that he allegedly committed multiple counts of election fraud including that he registered to vote at 1432 W. Walker Street and voted in the prior Primary Election 2026, when Luna, himself didn't actually lived at the address. Ortiz-Velez claims that Luna in an attempt to deceive Wisconsin Election Commission officials and 8th Assembly District electors, he used the W. Walker Street address as his primary residence in nomination papers and Declaration of Candidacy documents when he actually didn't live at the address. Ortiz-Velez allegedly claims Luna's primary address is at 5786 S. Honey Creek Drive in Milwaukee.
According to Wisconsin State law regarding a candidate running for elected office and declaring his/her candidacy, he/she doesn't need to live in the district they are seeking to represent, but if a candidate declares and officially registers under oath that he/she resides at an address within the district when he/she actually doesn't reside at the address, it is considered illegal and subject to prosecution under Wisconsin State laws.
The WEC will review the alleged election fraud complaint filed on Monday by Ortiz-Velez, and then determine, if Luna allegedly committed multiple counts of fraud, and if found that Luna did commit fraud, the WEC would recommend criminal charges involving election fraud.
