Bloomington woman pleads guilty to trying to vote twice in 2024 election

A McLean County judge has "reluctantly" accepted a plea agreement in a voter fraud case involving a Bloomington woman.

Suniti Sud, 56, pleaded guilty Tuesday to one count of attempting to vote twice in the 2024 general election.

In a hearing before Judge William Yoder, Sud admitted to knowingly trying to vote at a Bloomington polling place after having submitted a mail-in ballot in Wisconsin, where she has another residence.

The Bloomington Election Commission flagged the second ballot with the state's attorney's office, whose investigation led to Sud's arrest in September 2025.

24 months probation and a $500 fine is pretty light punishment for someone facing three separate felonies.
