Is There Something to the GOP Charges of Voter Fraud?

Hosted by

The McCain campaign and Republicans all over the country are zeroing in on the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now. ACORN claims to have registered 1.3 million young, minority and working class people in several states and admits that some of the names submitted are phony. A Federal Appeals Court has ordered the state of Ohio to establish a system to verify the eligibility of newly registered voters and to do it by Friday. It's the latest move in a long-running battle over allegations of voter fraud. Rick Hasen, Professor of Law at Loyola Law School, writes ElectionLawBlog.org.
