In Oregon, the validity of Nader's petitions has been sharply questioned by the Service Employees International Union.
- The public employees union, meanwhile, said it tried to contact 269 people whose names were on Nader's petitions.
The union said that based on those contacts, it found that 27 percent of the addresses do not exist, 22 percent of the names belonged to people who are dead or do not live at the address, and 17 percent reported they did not sign the petition.
Acting on the complaints about alleged forgeries, the Oregon Elections Division yesterday opened a formal investigation into the conduct of the Nader petition drive.
