| Description | HUNTSVILLE, AL -- The Alabama Democratic Party accused Main Street Strategies, the Huntsville political consulting shop of Rep. Parker Griffith, of downloading the party's "sensitive" voter identification data soon before switching to the Republican Party on Tuesday.
Joe Turnham, chairman of the Alabama Democratic Party, said the alleged move "was obviously intended to aid Mr. Griffith in his new role as a Republican candidate."
"The Democratic Party has spent untold sums of money building good data for elections and we make that data available to our Democratic candidates and officeholders. Mr. Griffith's campaign benefited from this asset, and he wouldn't be a Congressman today without it. Yet, in the wee hours before he became a Republican, Parker Griffith's political operatives, with full knowledge of what was occurring, went online and downloaded our confidential records," Turnham said.
Turnham added: "The party will consult with our attorney, and with authorities if necessary, to assess our remedy in these matters. If an apology is made and the data returned, we could consider moving on based on the goodwill of this season." |
