CINCINNATI

Election officials say a nun in southwest Ohio is suspected of illegally casting a ballot for another nun who had died before last November’s election.

The Cincinnati Enquirer reports a ballot in the name of a nun who died in October was returned to the Hamilton County Board of Elections in Cincinnati. A board member says an investigation showed it may have been cast by another nun. No charges have been filed.

The newspaper didn’t name the nun suspected of casting the ballot but said she apparently cast her own ballot on Election Day.
