Fake "Board of Elections" letters in OH telling new voters they can't vote
Edited on Thu Oct-28-04 10:18 PM by nu_duer
Not sure if this is a dupe, but somebody's very clearly trying to stop people from voting in OH.


-------------------------------
AKE COUNTY, Ohio -- The Lake County Board of Elections said Thursday that a letter being mailed to some of the county's newly registered voters is phony, and is not an official Board of Elections letter, reported NewsChannel5's Tracy Carloss.

The letter is printed on stationary that looks like it's from the board and tells voters that some groups registered people illegally, and that those who registered through these groups won't be able to vote on Tuesday.

Lake County officials are worried that more of these letters may be sent.

"We don't know if a bigger chunk of the iceberg is under the surface, but as of yet, a few letters have come to one residence with two people who received the actual letter," said Sheriff Dan Dunlap.

5. The Lake County BOL should be required to send
a clarification letter to all newly registered voters, complete with contact names and phone numbers.

Also a full fledged FBI investigation should be initiated - immediately. These folks need to be convinced these crimes will be dealt with quickly and harshly. Until that happens, this nonsense will continue.

Kerry on.
