Phantom Voters Registered for Crack

Mary Poppins. Jeffrey Dahmer. Janet Jackson. Chad Staton.

Defiance County elections officials were confident the first three hadn’t
moved to their small community. But the fourth one lived there, and
– in exchange for crack cocaine – tried to falsely submit the first
three names and more than 100 others onto the county’s voter registration
rolls, police said.

Defiance County Sheriff David Westrick said that Mr. Staton was working
on behalf of a Toledo woman, Georgianne Pitts, to register new voters.
She, in turn, was working on behalf of the NAACP National Voter Fund,
which was formed by the NAACP in 2000 to register new voters.
