Warning! Election chief warns of absentee voter scam in Florida. |
|
"The Pasco woman said someone came to her home to collect her absentee ballot earlier this week. She said she was led to believe they were from the elections office. The woman told the strangers she hadn't completed the ballot, but they took it anyway." http://www.sptimes.com/2004/10/22/Pasco/Election_chief_warns_.shtml

"Manatee Elections Supervisor Sweat said the people collecting the ballots appeared to know exactly who had absentee ballots. It is possible for political parties, candidates and political groups to get lists of voters who request the absentee ballots.
Sweat said it appeared the collections were occurring in neighborhoods full of low-income, minority and elderly residents."
Remember how people were saying that they were getting mail and phone calls from the Bush campaign telling them to request absentee ballots. I wonder if this has anything to do with it.
