Voter Registration in 43rd Assembly Race Examined

"An inquiry into possible voter registration irregularities allegedly engineered by state Assembly candidate Paul Krekorian's campaign has been referred to prosecutors, county officials said Monday, and Krekorian's opponent in the race for the 43rd Assembly District seat has been quick to cry fraud.

With just two weeks left before the June 6 primary, candidate Frank Quintero's attorneys sent a letter to the registrar of voters Monday demanding swift action against Krekorian. "We have every faith that the D.A.'s public integrity unit will prosecute this to the fullest extent of the law," said Phil Giarrizzo, Quintero's campaign consultant."
