A Central Asian national has pleaded guilty to submitting more than 100 fraudulent voter registration applications in Florida in 2023.

The foreign national, Sanjar Jamilov, from Uzbekistan, pleaded guilty to conspiring to submit more than 100 fraudulent voter registration applications to the Pinellas County supervisor of Elections in February and March 2023, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Middle District of Florida on Tuesday.

Dmitry Shushlebin, a 45-year-old from Russia, hired Jamilova, 32, and others to submit the fraudulent voter registration applications, according to the plea agreement.

The applications were submitted in names other than Jamilov and Shushlebin's, with nearly sequential Social Security numbers and repeating dates of birth and addresses. 

National Change of Address forms were submitted to the U.S. Postal Service in the names and addresses of the fraudulent applications and were sent to three locations that Shushlebin and Jamilov allegedly controlled.

The county election supervisor detected the fraud and rejected the applications.

Shushlebin also has been charged, and his case is still pending.
