Summary
Two West Virginia women, Jan Hite King and Kimberly Maynard, face up to a year in jail and $1,000 fines after being convicted of false swearing for lying about their residency when running for County Commission in 2022. A legal battle over whether the statute of limitations applied—first dismissed by a judge but later revived by the West Virginia Supreme Court—has brought their case back to life. Sentencing is set for October 23rd, serving as a stark warning that election integrity demands honesty, especially when it comes to residency claims.
