LETTERS No vote fraud in evidence here

Posted: January 17, 2005

IVOTED IN Germantown on Election Day (I have since moved) - and I didn't notice any paid "crack addicts" voting as Mr. Barclay referred to in his Jan. 10 letter.

I didn't notice any buses out front full of over-eager voters ready to go on to the next polling stop and - surprise surprise - they only let me vote once.

What I did notice were hard-working men and women checking for valid IDs and voter-registration cards, doing signature checks from where I signed in to where I had applied for my voter card.

My vote was just as important as the next person's, and the people working my polling place made sure that I got the chance to exercise my right to vote.

I think Mr. Barclay is doing the people who work the polls a disservice by implying that their efforts were less then genuine.
