Police Probe Vote Rigging Complaints

According to the Observer the police are investigating complaints of alleged vote rigging in Accringtons Central Ward during the elections earlier this month. Amongest the things being investigated visiting elderly ladies and offering to help them cast their vote without going to the polling station, bullying at polling stations in Hannah Street and Blackburn Road(allegedly with picture evidence), removing twenty people off the electoral roll in Church and matching them to empty properties in Swiss Street so they could vote in Central Ward and proxy votes cast on behalf of people who are now living in Pakistan so aren't eligible for a vote.
I was really shocked when I read it, what do you think? If this sort of thing is proven to be happening in local elections god only knows the lengths they will go to in the nationals to procure the extra votes.
