Dem Volunteer in Indiana Allegedly Found With Unprocessed Absentee Ballots

The reports are starting to come in from the FBI. Indiana, which looks to be close wins for Democrats, might have some challenges coming up. The FBI is investigating Monroe Country balloting after a poll worker in Bloomington is alleged to have been found with absentee ballots.
Both parties had their eyes on the situation as the FBI investigated allegations that a Democratic volunteer was found with unprocessed absentee ballots in her possession after the county began tallying absentee votes.
Monroe County is the largest county in the 9th Congressional District, where Republican Rep. Mike Sodrel and former Democratic Rep. Baron Hill were in a virtual dead-heat in their third matchup since 2002.
The irregularities may be significant if some races end closely. Sodrel is apparently the loser with a 2% margin, 49% - 47%.
Indiana also experienced a ton of problems with electronic voting machines.
