PITTSBURGH (AP) - Authorities in western Pennsylvania have accused seven people who worked for the community group ACORN of falsifying voter-registration forms.
The seven have been charged with either forging, illegally soliciting or illegally filling out voter-registration cards in the lead-up to the 2008 election.
Allegheny County District Attorney Stephen Zappala Jr. announced the charges at a news conference Thursday.
ACORN, the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, has come under scrutiny for registration irregularities in other states.
Authorities in Nevada filed charges Monday against ACORN and two former employees on charges they illegally paid canvassers to sign up voters. ACORN denied those accusations.
