Last year, he was indicted on several counts in connection with the District 9 electoral fraud investigation, including obstruction of justice, perjury and possession of postal ballots.

He was arrested less than a week after the state’s board of elections ruled that his work on Harris’ behalf, starting with the 2018 primaries, marred the GOP candidate’s apparent victory in November.

A new election has been ordered.

Channel 9’s in-depth investigation of the district has led to the only time in documented history that a federal election has been called off for an investigation into fraud.

Dowless is expected to be sentenced on federal charges in September.
