Deputy City Commissioner Says Internet Reports About Fraudulent Voting Are False
Deputy City Commissioner Ed Schulgan says the stories on the Internet and the "Drudge" report are not true.
The city is not impounding any voting machines, and they have found no machines that had votes on them already.
Schulgan says they've contacted all of the judges of elections in those areas, and they indicated that they printed out the ballots showing that all candidates had "zero" votes and that's when they opened the machines for voting.
As of 11:30am, Schulgan says voting is going smoothly in the city with relatively few problems and no complaints of harassment or intimidation.
remember this is in Philly, Rendell OWNS IT and anybody with any pull.
