Voter group wants documents unsealed in Indiana search

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) -- A voter mobilization facing an investigation into possible voter registration fraud asked a court Thursday to unseal documents from an Indiana State Police search of its offices, saying it "has been publicly demonized by the highest state officials in Indiana."

Patriot Majority USA's attorneys asked a judge to either unseal a search warrant affidavit in the Oct. 4 search of its Indianapolis offices or hold an immediate hearing on its request.

State Police announced Sept. 15 that it had begun investigating in August whether some voter registration applications submitted by Patriot Majority contained elements of fraud, including possible forged signatures. Patriot Majority has said some applications it submitted to county clerk's offices were missing information, but none were fraudulent, and the group had flagged applications it knew were incomplete.

In its motion filed in Marion County Superior Court, Patriot Majority cites comments by Gov. Mike Pence, who's Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump's running mate; Republican Secretary of State Connie Lawson; Pence-appointed State Police Superintendent Doug Carter, among others.
