Dems claim fears about fraud stoked by GOP scare off voters

Now, what kind of voter is scared off by ‘fears about fraud? How does that frighten a voter into not voting?

Concerns grow about election fraud, voter intimidation...

Democrats claim that the fears about fraud are overblown and are being stoked by Republicans and conservatives to scare off voters, particularly minorities, many of whom tend to vote Democratic. In the Illinois U.S. Senate race, for instance, Kirk can be heard on a taped conference call saying where his "voter integrity program" would be sent, and it was largely African-American neighborhoods.

Republicans deny that they are raising false alarms about voter fraud and say that their concerns are legitimate.
