Three campaign workers charged with fraud

By AP/KWMU

St. Louis, MO – Three campaign workers in St. Louis face fraud charges related to their work on a failed recall attempt of a city alderman a few years ago.

The Circuit Attorney's office says the three submitted pages of petitions with questionable entries in the effort to remove Jeffrey Boyd of the 22nd Ward.

Authorities say there were duplicate names, signatures with similar handwriting and names of people not registered to vote or were dead.

Charles Keller, 50; Linda Rogers, 57; and Sebekhu Smith, 55 are each charged with a felony election law violation.
