Voter fraud probe likely to go ahead

By KHRISNA VIRGIL kvirgil@tribunemedia.net THERE is a good chance the FNM's North Andros candidate will have his request for an investigation into voter fraud claims granted within the next two weeks, The Tribune understands. Minister of Education Desmond Bannister's call for a probe came after he turned over a list of suspected illegal voters to local authorities. The PLP denies it flew Nassau and Grand Bahama residents in to register in North Andros, but Mr Bannister offered to name the political operatives responsible. It is claimed that more than 30 persons, who left North Andros between three and 10 years ago, are now registered to vote there in the upcoming election. The Tribune understands the FNM has in its possession sworn statements from some of these individuals, confirming they were flown into the island by PLP operatives.
