Vote inquiry in Galloway's seat
Edited on Fri May-20-05 06:22 AM by Thankfully_in_Britai
This is not suprising. There were all sorts of allegations of skullduggery from both Labour and RESPECT in Bethnal Green & Bow.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/4564221.stm

Election officials in MP George Galloway's constituency are investigating 250 complaints from people who were unable to vote.
Mr Galloway beat Labour in Bethnal Green and Bow by 823 just votes but has complained about the electoral roll.

A spokesman for Tower Hamlets Council said it was examining reports from people who found they were not on the register on polling day.

On election night the newly elected Respect MP attacked the council for publishing an electoral roll "so shot through with errors and anomalies... as to be almost meaningless".

1. Hmmm I wonder if the Labour Party has been taking lessons from
Karl Rove and friends.

2. Are any of Rove's familiars working for Labor?
I'm sure they have Republican American "advisors" to help with the election.
