Prosecutors find many disputed addresses exist


The same review by the city attorney's office, however, raised doubts about the quality of the GOP's original list, finding that hundreds of the addresses that the Republicans claim are invalid and want removed do, in fact, exist. Some others, according to City Attorney Grant Langley, can be explained by data entry errors, not attempted fraud.

The letter said the review by his staff and the district attorney's office found cases where the database used by the GOP was corrupted, dropping digits on some homes so otherwise valid addresses showed up as non-existent.

In other cases, a check of the original handwritten registration cards showed digits had been transposed by clerks, something that can be corrected at the polls.
