New Mexico Man Registers Dog To Vote Using Fake Name, Social Security Number

A dog is man's best friend — and now he can even accompany him to the voting booth.

An Albuquerque, N.M., resident has successfully registered his dog to vote in Bernalillo County, he told KOB-TV.

The dog’s owner said he used fake information to sign Buddy up at a voter registration booth at the University of New Mexico.

“I made up a birthdate and I made up a Social Security number, and I had a voter registration card in my hand for Buddy two weeks later,” he told the TV station after receiving the card in the mail on Wednesday.

The man, who doesn't actually plan to vote using Buddy’s name, said he was only trying to prove that there are problems with the registration system.

“They should verify,” he told KOB-TV. “Somebody should have verified this information and somebody should have come out and took a look at exactly who it was.
