DENVER - Records containing personal information on more than 150,000 voters are missing at city election offices, and officials are trying to determine if the files were lost, moved or stolen.

The Denver Election Commission is also trying to figure out why officials didn't learn the records were missing until June 1, even though they are believed to have disappeared nearly four months earlier.

"We will get to the bottom of it," commission spokesman Alton Dillard told the Rocky Mountain News in Saturday's editions.

Police were notified about the missing records Saturday. The microfilmed voter registration files from 1989 to 1998 were in a 500-pound cabinet that disappeared when the commission moved to new offices in February. The files contain voters' Social Security numbers, addresses and other personal information.

Dillard said election staffers are scouring the commission's new and old offices and its warehouse. He said employees of the moving company, which was bonded, are also being questioned.

Also missing was a box with cards signed by voters who cast early ballots. The cards contain names, birth dates, addresses, signatures and partial Social Security numbers.

The missing files were first reported May 31 on a Web log run by Lisa Jones, a former temporary worker at the election commission. Officials said City Councilwoman Judy Montero saw the blog and told them about it the next day.

Jones said she believes commission officials knew of the lost files by April.

Dillard said top officials of the commission are trying to determine whether lower-ranking staff knew about the situation before last week.


Hmmmm...I wonder what happened to them and who is using this

forgive me if I sound paranoid here, just what the hell is happening? The senate comes out with an amnesty bill then all of a sudden all these citizen's ID's come up missing, do you think, maybe, just maybe, people are selling these ids to the new influx of invaders crawling over our borders?I am so sick of what this government is doing to us, I have just about had it! does anybody out there besides old Nitty, see what is just over our horizon?



I HEAR THE DRUMS BEATING, FASTER AND FASTER
EYES ARE BEING OPENED
PULSES ARE RACING
BLOOD PRESSURE IS RISING
ANGER IS SIMMERING JUST UNDER THE SURFACE
MORE AND MORE AMERICANS ARE COMING TOGETHER
THE GIANT SLUMBERS NO MORE
MY SPIRIT IS VERY RESTLESS
MY DREAMS ARE FULL OF MY ANCESTORS OF OLD, WARRIORS!

How can a 500 lb file cabinet become lost? And why is it just now being reported? Well, I guess this is another 150,000 id caper, just in time for a forced guest-worker policy.
