Overview
- Miya Pack admitted in court on Monday, June 22, 2026, that she cast one in-person ballot in Bergen County, New Jersey, on Oct. 26, 2024, and a second ballot in Philadelphia on Election Day.
- Federal prosecutors say the case began after an FBI agent contacted Pack and records showed her New Jersey vote was an in-person machine ballot rather than a late mail ballot she initially described.
- Pack was indicted by federal prosecutors in September and formally pleaded guilty before U.S. District Judge Joshua D. Wolson; her sentencing is set for Oct. 1, 2026.
- Prosecutors told the court that federal sentencing guidelines could recommend no jail time to six months while press reports note a higher statutory maximum sentence for the offense.
- Coverage places the case in a wider debate about voter fraud, noting past high-profile claims about fraud in places like Philadelphia even as election experts say widespread voter fraud is rare and related prosecutions have occurred in prior cycles.
