BAM STAFFERS PULL THEIR BOGUS OHIO BALLOTS
By JEANE MACINSTOSH
October 25, 2008

Thirteen campaign workers for Barack Obama yesterday yanked their
voter registrations and ballots in Ohio after being warned by a
prosecutor that temporary residents can't vote in the battleground
state.

A dozen staffers — including Obama Ohio spokeswoman Olivia Alair and
James Cadogan, who recently joined Team Obama — signed a form letter
asking the Franklin County elections board to pull their names from
the rolls.

The letter — a copy of which was obtained by palestra.net, a Fox News
affiliate — came a day after prosecutor Ron O'Brien publicly urged
out-of-state campaign workers for both Obama and John McCain to
"examine your conscience" before the elections board beings begins
opening absentee ballots today.

Earlier in the week, O'Brien spoke with lawyers for both camps and
urged them to make sure their staffs met permanent-residency rules, or
face possible felony charges.

Also pulling his ballot yesterday was Hofstra University grad Jake
Smith, an Obama volunteer who had voted in Knox County, Ohio.

On Thursday, O'Brien cut a deal with 13 out-of-staters, including four
from New York, who tossed out their already-cast ballots and admitted
they didn't meet residency requirements.
