Now, the Department of the Interior has awarded a $2.7 million contract to clean the pool to a Massachusetts-based company whose chief executive is being prosecuted for election fraud, according to CNN. 

Renewable energy company American Ag Energy will repair and maintain the pool’s sewage and purification systems, according to the official contract description.

The one-year contract could be extended for another five years and grow to up to $8.8 million, CNN reported.

The company’s CEO, Richard Rosen, was convicted last year of voter fraud for casting ballots in the 2016 election in both Massachusetts and New Hampshire.

In their determination of Rosen’s guilt of voter fraud, Bornstein at the sentencing hearing said the jury found Rosen “knowingly” voted twice in November 2016. Rosen requested an absentee ballot from the Holderness town clerk/tax collector at the time, Ellen King. 

Rosen then voted at the public library in Belmont, Mass., where that town holds its elections. 

Matteson said Rosen’s voting twice in the 2016 general election, which featured a presidential race, gave him an extra voice in the voting process. Rosen, Matteson said, blamed a former business colleague or partner and a handyman at his home in Massachusetts for casting ballots under his name in the Bay State. 

Matteson cited the lack of values behind double voting to Rosen which allowed him to “have your voice overrepresented to get more than your fair share.” 

“This was a crime of dishonesty and fraud,” Matteson said, and that Rosen had “engaged in double voting on seven instances over a decade.”
