Registration fraud |

Las Vegas, Washoe County. An employee of a private voter registration firm alleges that his bosses trashed registration forms filled out by Democratic voters because they only wanted to sign up Republican voters. Eric Russell worked for a company called Voters Outreach of America, along with 300 other people. He says he got into a beef with the company over a pay dispute, and witnessed his bosses ripping up registration forms that had been filed by democrats. "They were thrown away in the trash. I grabbed them out," said Eric Russell. One of those forms belonged to Daren Gray, who was shocked to learn that the re-registration form he filled out was never turned in.

Ballot secrecy |
NV |
|
On Nevada's system, manufactured by Northern California-based Sequoia Voting Systems, votes are stored on a paper roll wrapped around a spool, much like cash-register tape. Because rolls store votes sequentially, they open the door for poll watchers to discover how people voted, if they count voters coming through the door and compare that with vote records.
