State: Absentee vote count ‘will not be a problem’ in elections
By MAURICE TAMMAN
With just days before elections, state officials were scrambling this week to determine whether they had a problem that could call into question tens of thousands of absentee votes.
The problem surfaced in the state’s newly minted central voter database, a multimillion-dollar project that is supposed to cleanse the voter rolls of errors and prevent voter fraud.
The Herald-Tribune on Wednesday found thousands of mysterious entries in the tally of historic votes that suggested people had already voted in elections that haven’t yet occurred.</i>
Oops.
