In Harrisburg, PA, Political consultant Mark Zabierek has been charged with eight counts of forging signatures and eight counts of forging signatures and statements in a nomination petition. His attorney said that Zaierek waived his Miranda rights and may seek to have the charges waived to the court in a preliminary hearing set for September 24.
There is a lot to be said for a ballot petition process that calls for a filing fee only as opposed to signatures--it certainly makes things easier and less subject to these kinds of activities.
Hat Tip: Prof. Hasen.
