There were concerns that Somalis voted in yesterday's primary and they weren't U.S. Citizens.

Barron County Clerk, DeeAnn Cook, says there's no reason to believe the Somalis voted illegally, but she says she did immediately call the State Election Board to find out what they should do if a concern is raised. Cook discovered, nothing can be done unless someone has information proving that a person is not a U.S. Citizen.

DeeAnn Cook says, "The state election board made it quite clear that if someone sounds a little different than you or looks a little different than you...it's not sufficient reason to challenge"

When you sign your voter registration form, you're confirming you're a U.S. Citizen, you're 18-years-old, and you've lived here ten days or more. For election workers, your word is all they can go by.

DeeAnn Cook says, "I have to trust people when they sign the form."

Barron City Clerk and Treasurer, Tony Slagstad, says he doesn't think the voter registration process needs to be changed at all.

Tony Slagstad says, "I think they're adequate the way they are now. I think they've been gone over by lawmakers and stood the test of time."

Barron County Clerk, DeeAnn Cook, feels the process needs to change, and that voter fraud is a concern.

DeeAnn Cook says, "I think it's a growing problem, not a decreasing problem and we're going to see it more and more."

Tony Slagstad says, "I've got to believe it's happening all over the state."

Slagstad says he wants people to know his office take the voter registration process seriously.

Tony Flagstad says, "We just don't let people come off the street and vote."

According to the State Election Board, if you decide to illegally sign your voter registration form, you'll be faced with penalties. If someone intentionally votes at any election and doesn't have the necessary qualifications, they may be fined up to $10,000 or serve up to 9 months in prison.
