4 Indiana Dems charged with election fraud in 2008 presidential race
By Eric Shawn - Fox News
Felony charges related to election fraud have touched the 2008 race for the highest office in the land.
Prosecutors in South Bend, Ind., filed
charges Monday against four St. Joseph County Democratic officials and
deputies as part of a multiple-felony case involving the alleged forging
of Democratic presidential primary petitions in the 2008 election,
which put then-candidates Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton on the Indiana ballot.
The officials are accused of taking part in a
scheme to fake signatures and names on the primary petitions needed to
run for president. Court papers say the plan was hatched by local Democratic Party officials inside the local party headquarters.
