No problems reported with ACORN's LI branch

ACORN, the anti-poverty group under investigation for voter fraud in several states, has organized voter registration drives on Long Island this year but no allegations of misconduct have been made, officials said Sunday.

Cathy L. Richter Geier, the Republican commissioner of the Suffolk County Board of Elections, said workers with the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, or ACORN had dropped off registration forms this year, including 66 last week. No problems had been found, she said.

We have not seen anything out of the ordinary, Geier said.

Ann Sullivan, an ACORN organizer on Long Island, said the group had registered 3,000 new voters in Nassau and Suffolk and no irregularities were found.

"We feel these attacks are politically motivated," Sullivan said.
