Thousands of voter registrations altered in Indiana

By Around the Web

(INDYSTAR) — As Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump repeats his message that the general election process is “rigged,” the top election official in the home state of his running mate, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, said she has found thousands more incidents of what she characterized as potential “voter fraud.”

Republican Secretary of State Connie Lawson said her office has found voter registration forms containing first names and birth dates different from what voters provided. She said she has handed those altered records over to the Indiana State Police for review.

However, a leading election official in Hamilton County, also a Republican, said labeling the discrepancies as fraud was a hasty conclusion.

Lawson’s allegations also come just one week after a Tippecanoe County election official acknowledged that the secretary of state’s voter data system could be manipulated by those wishing to cause harm.
