Another person was indicted Tuesday for election fraud in connection with absentee ballots she collected and submitted as a worker for the 2007 campaign of state Sen. Teresa Ruiz (D-Essex) in the 29th District, state Attorney General Anne Milgram announced.
Four other campaign workers for Ruiz were charged in three prior indictments.
According to state Criminal Justice Director Deborah L. Gramiccioni, Rocio Rivera, 49, of Lebanon Township, Hunterdon County, an employee of the Essex County Sheriff’s Office, was charged in a state grand jury indictment with election fraud, absentee ballot fraud, tampering with public records or information, and forgery. The indictment stems from an ongoing investigation by the Division of Criminal Justice Corruption Bureau and the Essex County prosecutor’s office.
