Le Pen: PVV MEP took my vote without permission

French National Front Euro parliamentarian Marine le Pen has acknowledged EU that PVV parliamentarian Marcel de Graaf voted on her behalf without her knowledge. She told the European Parliament on Thursday in Strasbourg that, “It is true, he cast four of my votes without my permission”, reported de Volkskrant. On Wednesday the EU accused parliamentarian De Graaf of voting fraud, having possibly voted up to seven times. De Graaf, the leader of the Freedom Party in Europe, was not permitted to vote on Le Pen’s behalf, even though they represent the same group. The PVV Euro parliamentarian could be reprimanded, suspended or face paying penalties. The European Parliament is currently working on the investigation.
