JUNEAU  The Alaska Department of Law has accused state Rep. Gabrielle LeDoux, R-Anchorage, and two associates of election fraud in 2018 and 2014.

The accusations were listed in charging documents filed Friday and are the result of a two-year state investigation that also involved the FBI.

According to a sworn affidavit, text messages obtained under search warrant "raised concerns that LeDoux had solicited and/or encouraged people who did not live in her district to vote in the House District 15 primary and general elections in 2018 and 2014."

The state accuses LeDoux, her former chief of staff Lisa Simpson, and Simpson's son, Caden Vaught, of 18 charges collectively, including five felonies and 13 misdemeanors. Online court records did not list defense attorneys for any of the three.
