Ind. Gov't. - "Inquiry looms as Charlie White wins secretary of state's job"
Carrie Ritchie has this report on the front page of this morning's Indianapolis Star. Some quotes:
Questions of alleged voting irregularities didn't keep Republican Charlie White from winning election Tuesday as Indiana's next secretary of state, the state's chief elections official.But questions will remain as he prepares to take office.
Two special prosecutors are investigating White's voting records in Hamilton County, focusing on whether he broke the law by voting in the May 4 primary from a former address in Fishers.
Intentionally voting in a precinct where you don't live can be a felony under Indiana law -- and if charged and convicted of a felony, White would have to give up the position that he won by a wide margin Tuesday.
