Former Dem mayoral candidate admits forging voter registration applications

Henrilynn Ibezim, a former Democratic mayoral candidate in New Jersey, pleaded guilty to forging nearly 1,000 voter registration applications during the 2021 Democratic primary. He attempted to mail the falsified forms and coached a witness to obstruct law enforcement, but received only 103 votes and lost to current mayor Adrian O. Mapp. He faces probation after pleading guilty to third-degree forgery as part of a plea agreement.
