Laura Lee Yourex, 62, was charged with five felonies on Friday after she casted ballots in her dog’s name which were successfully counted in a state election. Yourex self-reported to the Orange County Registrar of Voter’s Office that she had registered her dog, Maya Jean, to vote in a 2021 gubernatorial election and the 2022 primary. The Costa Mesa resident's dog's vote was counted in the 2021 election but rejected in 2022.
