Fla. man accused of tampering with database

-

A Florida man who allegedly accessed the registrati­on of several wellknown figures stands accused of changing Gov. Ron DeSantis address in a voter database. Anthony Steven Guevara, 20, of Naples, was charged with felonies. Authoritie­s say he also accessed the registrati­ons for U.S. Sen. Rick Scott, Michael Jordan and LeBron James, but made no changes.

An elections supervisio­n called Guevara’s actions a “very expensive prank,” at worst.

Meanwhile, the supervisor of elections in Brevard County has deployed security to guard vote-by-mail drop boxes outside her four offices around the clock after hearing Sunday of the contents of a box set on fire in Boston.
