Homeland Security Requests Election Review

The Homeland Security Department said today it has informally asked the Justice Department to review the legal issues involved in possibly postponing the presidential election if it risked being disrupted by terrorism.

The idea was initially suggested last week by DeForest B. Soaries, Jr., chairman of the U.S. Election Commission, a relatively obscure agency created by Congress in 2002 to help localities improve their voting systems.
