Allegations of electoral fraud at polling stations in Glasgow cast a shadow
over the Scottish referendum result today.
Police launched an investigation after the city’s council alerted them to 10
suspected cases of voters impersonating other people, allowing them to
complete two ballot papers. Under British law, voters are not required to
present identification when they take part in an election.
Stewart Hosie, SNP Treasury spokesman at Westminster, said it was “very sad
that people feel the need to engage in any kind of impersonation”, adding: “
I think that’s a daft thing to do. The ballot papers have been identified,
they will be taken away and fingerprinted, the police will do their job and I
’m sure whoever has done it will be caught and sentenced.
“That’s the correct procedure. It won’t change the result but of course it
shouldn’t have happened, it is a silly, silly, thing for anyone to try to do.
”
Colin Edgar, a spokesman for Glasgow City Council’s chief executive,
explained how the alleged fraud was uncovered. “Somebody turned up to vote,
they gave their name, the presiding officer went to cross off their name on
the list of voters to give them a ballot paper and found the name had already
been crossed off and a ballot paper had already been issued to someone who
apparently had the same name,” he said.
The scale of the fraud appears to be very small, as the number of people
registered to vote in Glasgow is 486,219.
