NC's Attorneys Grill Witness to Support State's Belief of Possible Voter Fraud

It's a battle of numbers as Civil Rights groups and the state of North Carolina debate the possibility of voter fraud.

The plaintiffs are trying to stop North Carolina's voting law from being used during the November General Election. They argue it discriminates against minorities and creates road blocks to the polls for the elderly, teenagers and low-income residents. But the state contends changes in the law create a fair system for all residents and will prevent fraud.
