Politics - The King County prosecutor will check Republican charges of laxness in signups
SEATTLE -- King County Prosecutor Norm Maleng says he's ready to investigate questionable voter registrations following Republican challenges that he contends show a serious flaw in voter rolls statewide in Washington.
Maleng said his office is prepared to investigate voters who have registration addresses at non-residential locations such as private-mailbox businesses.
"It is not acceptable that these incomplete and illegal registrations are allowed to stand without being corrected," he said at a news conference earlier this week.
Maleng's involvement was good news to the state Republican Party.

"...someone claiming to be Light...and voted in the September special election that put Ophelia Ford in the state Senate by a razor-thin margin.
-- Light died on Aug. 6, six weeks before the election."
"Roland, a Republican, lost the Dist. 29 senate seat by 13 votes in a race in which 8,750 ballots were cast."
"Election officials already have conceded that three convicted felons and a voter registered outside Dist. 29 improperly voted in the contest."
