FL ELECTED OFFICIAL (D) STEALS BALLOT PUNCH MACHIN

FLORIDA DEMOCRATIC ELECTED OFFICIAL
STEALS BALLOT PUNCHING MACHINE

The Democratic Official refused to return the Votamatic saying he intended to use it. The official was in possesion of the Votamatic during the "hand count".

A Democratic elected official, Irving Slosberg, a 53-year-old resident of Boca Raton, who recently won a seat in the state Legislature amid allegations he tried to buy his election, is at the center of another political mess.

Slosberg had a Votamatic in his car and had been "schlepping" the mechanism around the county government center "like a traveling election equipment salesman." A Votamatic is the machine which is used to punch holes in ballots.

When Slosberg was asked by Denise Cote, director of public affairs for Palm Beach County if he would return the votamatic, Slosberg became confrontational and denied having the mechanism.

"I asked Mr. Slosberg to return it to me, and he said no, he intended to use it," Cote told ABCNEWS.com. She said Slosberg did not say how he wanted to use it and he declined to say how he had obtained it.

When told of the incident, Palm Beach County's supervisor of elections, Theresa Lefore, declined to press charges, according to the report. She noted that this incident did occur during the hand count of the presidential election and Lefore stated she did not wish to pursue further this matter at this time due to extenuating circumstances...

Police Say Florida Democrat Had a 'Votamatic' in His Car

Nov. 15

Several days after presidential votes were tallied in what has become the
hotbed of Florida's post-election confusion, police in Palm Beach County
confiscated a ballot-box mechanism from the car of a well-known local Democrat.

The mechanism, called a "Votamatic," did not contain any ballots. It's a
device used on some types of ballot boxes to punch votes through ballot
cards, which are then tallied by computers.

According to a police report filed at the Palm Beach County sheriff's
office and obtained by ABCNEWS, Irving Slosberg, 53, pulled the mechanism
from his car and handed it over to police on Nov. 11 after denying to a
county government employee that he had it.

When told of the incident, Palm Beach County's supervisor of elections,
Theresa Lefore, declined to press charges, according to the report.

She noted that this incident did occur during the hand count of the
presidential election and Lefore stated she did not wish to pursue further
this matter at this time due to extenuating circumstances," it said.

No further action was taken.

County Official Contacts Authorities Slosberg, a 53-year-old resident of
nearby Boca Raton who owns a handbag company, recently won a seat in the
state Legislature amid allegations he tried to buy his election.

The unidentified officer who filed the report had been working a special
elections detail when he was contacted by Denise Cote, director of public
affairs for Palm Beach County. Cote said she believed Slosberg had an
official Palm Beach County ballot box, according to the police report.

Cote told the officer she first wanted to speak with Slosberg alone to
convince him to give the machinery back, but she asked the officer to stand
by. Ten minutes later, Cote returned to the officer and said Slosberg had
become confrontational and denied having the mechanism.

I asked Mr. Slosberg to return it to me, and he said no, he intended to
use it," Cote told ABCNEWS.com. She said Slosberg did not say how he
wanted to use it and he declined to say how he had obtained it.

I was told by the county's attorney's office that it must have been taken
from a voting booth, because there was no other way that he could have
obtained it," Cote said.

When the officer asked Slosberg whether he had the item, Slosberg led the
officer to his car and handed over the Votamatic, according to the police
report.

ABCNEWS tried to contact Slosberg, but he was not available for comment.

Elected After a Recount Slosberg won his new seat during a heated and
extremely close election.

Just days before a Democratic runoff, which he won, his opponent, incumbent
Curt Levine, filed a state ethics complaint, accusing Slosberg of trying to
buy the election by giving away thousands of handbags and paying retirees
phony consulting fees.

Slosberg's defeat of Levine practically guaranteed him a term that
reportedly pays nearly $27,000 a year for representing the Boca Raton
district. On Nov. 7, he defeated a lesser-known write-in candidate,
Robert A. Sloan III, in the general election.

In the primary election, Slosberg had barely squeaked past Levine. He
reportedly had 50.5 percent of the votes to Levine's 49.5
percent. Slosberg was declared the winner after a recount of the votes.

'It Disappeared'

A Palm Beach Post political columnist wrote Monday that Slosberg had been
"schlepping" the mechanism around the county government center "like a
traveling election equipment salesman." He was happy to provide a
demonstration of the county's ballot problems for anyone with a TV camera
last week," wrote columnist George Bennett.

But Slosberg was no longer toting the visual aid Saturday night, after Mary
McCarty, a Palm Beach County commissioner, demanded to know how he got his
hands on a piece of official county voting machinery, Bennett wrote.

It disappeared, Slosberg said Sunday when asked about the Votamatic.
