Remember the Very Forgetful Michael Zore?

Last August, Michael Zore joined double voter Donovan Riley, disgraced Democrat candidate for the Wisconsin state Senate, as being convicted of voting twice in the same election.

"I forgot" didn't get Zore off the hook.

Today, he was sentenced.

From the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel:

A man who voted twice in the November 2006 election and was convicted of two felonies after arguing unsuccessfully that it happened because of a memory lapse, was sentenced to a year in the county House of Correction this morning by Milwaukee Circuit Judge William W. Brash III.

"This is, from this court's perspective, a lifeblood issue," Brash told Michael A. Zore of his offense. "It is what we are as a people."

Zore, 45, was ordered to serve two years' probation, with the first year behind bars without work or other daytime release. He is eligible for good-behavior release from the HOC, which could come as soon as eight months into the sentence. Zore is to report to the House of Correction Jan. 2.

If he breaks probation, a stayed sentence of 18 months in prison and 12 on extended supervision will be invoked. He had faced the possibility of up to 7 years in prison.

I have a bad feeling about this.

With Zore's poor memory, I think there's a high probablity that he's going to forget he's on probation.
