GOP's list of voter irregularities in Milwaukee

Updated 11-10-00

Following is the text of a list of allegations of

voter irregularity and fraud in Milwaukee collected

by the Wisconsin Republican Party and turned over

to the Milwaukee County district attorney's office

on Friday:

Incident: Marquette students were seen taking 10 or

more ballots at a time.

Incident: Ballots were taken out of the polling

place.

Incident: Individuals entered the voting place with

more than one addressed envelope and asked which

one would allow them to vote in that location.

Incident: A voter was asked by another voter to

vouch for her residence in the ward. He said he

wouldn't, and the woman appealed to another person

in line. The other person claimed to poll workers

that she is his roommate.

Incident: A voter was told that she had already

voted upon arriving at her polling place. She was

asked to sign an affidavit verifying who she was

and was not told what happened to her first ballot.

Incident: Polling place had a "help yourself" pile

of ballots. Voters could have easily voted more

than once.

Incident: Ballots were left sitting on a chair

prior to being fed through the machine. Poll

workers were seen looking through them.

Incident: UWM student voted on campus. Another

voter showed his off campus address to a poll

worker. The poll worker told him, "you can't vote

here, put down (address of dorm) instead." Same

student said friends were bragging about having

voted for Gore five or six times.

Incident: Voter was told that his marks on the

ballot were too dark, and asked to re-do the

ballot. The voter did not see the other ballot

destroyed.

Incident: Ballot machine was not operating. The

ballots were being stacked in a pile for workers to

run through later.

Incident: Ballots may have been left unattended in

some areas of Milwaukee due to a broken down truck.

Incident: Marquette students voted 5 or 6 times for

Al Gore.

Incident: Two ballots were given to a man wearing a

Milwaukee County Public Schools jacket. When he

tried to return a ballot, he was told that he

should have two.

Incident: Poll workers told a voter to "vote

democrat".

Incident: A voter tried to register to vote at the

4th Precinct in the 72nd Ward of Milwaukee. He was

not asked for identification or proof of address.

Poll workers tried to prevent him from filling out

a registration card. Registration cards that he

observed only had a signature, no address.

Incident: Ward 296, District 16, called the city

clerk to verify what was needed to re-register at a

new address. When they re-registered, they were not

asked for any proof of residence.

Incident: Non-registered voters were not asked for

identification at the 6th District polling place.

Incident: A new voter was not required to show any

identification at the Cumberland School in

Whitefish Bay.

Incident: A Marquette student had moved since

voting in the April primary. Poll workers told her

"not to worry about it and just go ahead and vote"

when she attempted to change her address.

Incident: A voter was given three different ballots

due to mistakes he made on them. The two previous

ballots were not seen destroyed.

Incident: Ballot machine in Wauwatosa was broken,

and until the machine was fixed, ballots were

stacked next to the machine.
