KY: Not A Lot Fraud Found With Election Fraud Hotline

An “election fraud hotline” you say?  Should somebody call this “hotline” if they think somebody is playing politics where they’re not supposed to?  The Hazard Herald:

Attorney General Jack Conway announced today that his Election Fraud Hotline received 60 calls from 28 counties between 6a.m. and 7p.m. during the Kentucky Primary Election on Tuesday, May 20. The majority of calls came from county officials or voters with procedural questions. The most common complaints concerned election officials, electioneering within 300 feet of a polling place and exit-polling violations. There were no complaints or allegations of vote-buying on election day.

The hotline received 27 complaints during the 2007 primary and 86 complaints during the General Election.

“With increased interest and voter turnout in this election, we expected an increase in calls to our hotline,” General Conway said. “I appreciate voters and concerned citizens who served as our eyes and ears on the ground to ensure that all Kentuckians had a fair chance to have their vote count in this important election.”
