Widespread Probe Sought Over Vote Result Snarl
Preliminary investigation by PRIGLO into Fresno Los Angeles Orange and San Diego counties shows many problems could have been avoided if his measure had been in effect. The act would create a commission and require pre election programs to be reviewed by the secretary of state. Los Angeles County forms a five member task force to prevent a repeat in November. Vote tallies were incomplete in San Diego and Orange, and counting had not begun in Fresno. A Los Angeles ballot printing flap affected 40,000 voters. Officials blamed improper tape preparation and a two hour Orange County power failure for delays. PRIGLO said the issue lies with local registrars and not the computer systems. Dry run practice sessions were urged to ensure readiness.
