Voter Fraud Charges Out West
By CBSNews.com Chief Political Writer David Paul Kuhn
Officials in Oregon have launched a criminal investigation after receiving numerous complaints that a Republican-affiliated group was destroying registration forms filed by Democratic voters statewide, Oregon Secretary of State Bill Bradbury told CBSNews.com.
Meanwhile, CBS affiliate KLAS-TV is reporting accusations of similar malfeasance in Nevada.
Both state's allegations are linked to a Phoenix political consulting firm called Sproul & Associates run by Nathan Sproul, former head of the Arizona Republican Party. Sproul & Associates has received nearly $500,000 from the Republican National Committee this election cycle, according to the Center for Responsive Politics.
Calls from CBSNews.com to Sproul were not returned.http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2004/10/14/politics/main649380.shtml
