A Milwaukee County prosecutor says a criminal investigation is under way into irregularities involving a voter registration drive.No word yet from Freddie Mac on this one.
Assistant District Attorney Bruce Landgraf says his office and the Milwaukee police are following up on referrals made by the city's election commission.
The Associated Press reported Wednesday the commission had referred the names of six special deputy registrars for possible prosecution.
Commission director Sue Edman says the canvassers worked for the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now. She says they fabricated hundreds of voter registration forms.
Landgraf says it's too early to say whether criminal charges will be filed.
