WASHINGTON (CNN) — A Pennsylvania judge rejected state Republican party demands to obtain lists of voters registered by the community group known as ACORN. The state GOP accuses ACORN of widespread fraud in helping register some 140,000 voters in Pennsylvania. ACORN welcomed the ruling against the Pennsylvania state Republican party, spokeswoman Ali Kronley told CNN Friday, turning the GOP charges back against the party. “This kind of manufactured crisis is masking their own efforts to keep voters from voting,” she said. The top lawyer representing the Pennsylvania Republicans said they were “disappointed.” But, Heather Heidelbaugh added, the wording of the court order indicates the judge thinks ACORN has problems. |
