Dead Woman Among Disputed Florida Voter Registration Forms Filed By GOP-Linked Group

snip
Eugenia Huguenin says breast cancer killed her daughter long before a voter registration card with Michele Huguenin's name and supposed signature was filed this year in Palm Beach County.

Her name was on one of the disputed 106 voter registration forms gathered on behalf of the Republican Party that have spawned a statewide voter fraud investigation.

While the form with Huguenin's name on it shows her requesting a new voter card this year, her mother said her daughter was already dead. Also, the Coconut Creek address listed on the form was out of date, because she said her daughter had moved to Atlanta several years ago.

"She couldn't have signed it," Eugenia Huguenin, of Michigan, said about the voter registration form that is now among thousands under investigation. "I don't know how they got her name."

Others whose names ended up on disputed voter forms -- from a retired police officer in Boynton Beach to a nanny in Fort Lauderdale -- are also wondering how their identities got swept into a voter fraud probe that has prompted a criminal investigation by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement.

Too many voter registration forms failed to include basic identification information and too many signatures for different people looked too similar -- and that drew the attention of the Palm Beach County Supervisor of Elections Office.
