With Baltimore scrambling to make sure next week's voting goes
smoothly, city elections officials expressed concern Wednesday at
reports that a rogue caller was contacting poll workers and changing
their Election Day assignments -- raising the prospect that some
precincts might not have the staffing they need.

State elections chief Linda H. Lamone contacted the FBI Wednesday after
Baltimore officials reported that someone called at least 10 poll
workers and falsely told them that their precinct assignments had been
switched.
