Kyle Brookings says his father was told by Elections NL to forge his twin brother's signature in order for his vote to count after receiving the wrong ballot in the mail. Elections NL says an Elections NL official would never tell somebody to misrepresent themselves, and doing so constitutes as fraud. (CBC)Elections NL told CBC News in a statement that an Elections NL official would never instruct someone to forge another person's signature or misrepresent themselves. The organization said if the incident did happen, there was "certainly a miscommunication between the election official and the elector." "It would absolutely be election fraud for someone to sign someone else's name on the blue declaration envelope," the Elections NL statement reads.
