Looks like Dems are taking no chances on this election. The problem is, they are not covering their tracks very well
LAKE COUNTY, Ind. — Indiana Secretary of State Todd Rokita submitted 100 hours worth of investigative work to the FBI and prosecutors requesting an investigation of the voter advocacy group ACORN.
Indiana Attorney General Steve Carter confirms there have been allegations of voter registration fraud in Lake County.
Rokita said 1,400 application submitted by ACORN violated Indiana election laws.
Long lines inside the County-City building are indicative of the growing popularity of early voting across the state, including Lake County, where hour-long waits are the norm.
Across the nation, the number of early voters has surged, and so have the problems.
"There have been a number of allegations about fraud in the registration process," said Carter.
Rokita has requested a criminal investigation in Lake County. He determined from 1,438 applications submitted by ACORN:
61 percent showed one or more indications of fraud or forgery
54 percent had no verifiable information
30 percent featured incorrect, incomplete or illegible information
