King County challenges 99 felons on voter list
KATU NEWS


SEATTLE - King County is challenging the voter registration of 99 apparent felons who did not have the right to vote in the last election.
The King County prosecutor's office has been reviewing a list of 105 questionable voters supplied by The Seattle Times.

Prosecutor Norm Meleng says four of those people had their voting rights restored.

One other only had a misdemeanor conviction in King County.

Officials are seeking information from California about a possible felony conviction in that state.

1. I would hope this has nothing to do with the Washington Gov. race
It would be silly to focus on a handpicked group of people to try and cancel their votes when it is well documented that the election had signficant problems of many types in many counties. There was major touchscreen fraud and glitches and other problems in Snohomish County that is known to have had significant effect on the totals there, in both presidents and govenors race- likely much more than a group of potential felons.

You can find a group of felons who voted in any state and most big counties in any election and you could also find others who voted and were ineligible for other reasons. If one was going to revisit a race like the Gov. race in Washington again, they should look at all counties again in detail-quite a process; but they would find lots of problems to argue about.
