A Pinellas County woman is the latest Floridian arrested over falsified petitions for a 2022 proposed amendment to expand casino gaming.
Kasandra Baylor, 65, of St. Petersburg was arrested Sunday on charges of criminal use of personal identification information after prosecutors say she used a dead person’s information and the information of unwitting voters to fill out petitions in favor of the proposed constitutional amendment. Of the 976 petitions Baylor submitted as a paid petition-gatherer, 477 were deemed invalid for reasons including having signatures that didn’t match, being completed by voters not on the rolls, or having deceased individuals’ information, according to prosecutors.
