SEATTLE -- A woman who faced up to 90 days in jail for registering her dog to vote has agreed to a deal that could remove the charge from her record.
Jane Balogh, 66, won't be prosecuted if she does 10 hours community service, pays a $250 fine and does not break the law for a year, a judge said Wednesday.

Balogh registered her dog, Duncan M. McDonald, to vote in April 2006 by putting her phone bill in the dog's name and using that as ID. She said she did it to protest a law that she believed made it too easy for noncitizens to vote. AP
