Watchdog group charges some voters are not being allowed to vote
A watchdog group filed a lawsuit Friday against the city and state boards of election for failing to accommodate voting for people who are incarcerated but not convicted of a crime. The group, Voters for the Integrity of City Elections, or VOICE, estimates that 1,100 people are awaiting trial in state-run correctional facilities in the city who are registered to vote and another 700 are eligible to vote but not registered. There are perhaps thousands more in county facilities
