8 St. Louis voter registration workers admit to fraud
(Published April 02, 2008)
ST. LOUIS — Eight workers for a get-out-the-vote effort in St. Louis city and county have pleaded guilty to federal election fraud for submitting false registration cards for the 2006 election, authorities said Wednesday.

The workers were employed by the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN), gathering voter registrations. U.S. Attorney Catherine Hanaway said they submitted cards with false addresses and names, and forged signatures.

Each faces up to five years in prison and thousands of dollars in fines.

Now why wouldn’t that leave the 2006 elections open for dispute?
