Revere Election Challenge Prompts Late Board Session
The Revere Board of Registrars of Voters met until late last night over a fraudulent voting case tied to the March 7 election. Benjamin Keeping alleged two ballots cast in Precinct 4 by James R. Carroll and Frank M. Shaw were illegal as both men had moved away, potentially tying the race with Selectman Samuel A. Segee. Former Chief Fred S. Sackett testified Shaw admitted voting for Segee and knew it was illegal, with an affidavit sworn by Shaw. The hearing was postponed to this evening for further developments.
