HOLLISTER, Calif. -- The man in charge of San Benito County's elections is under fire for another mistake with November's ballot.

First, thousands of absentee ballots were misprinted and could disenfranchise voters in the Sunnyslope Water District.

Now, two women who live at the same house have come forward, showing county leaders they got three absentee ballots each -- six in the same household.

The pair said John Hoges and his election staff told them to throw the extra ballots away, but they're worried other people will vote twice and get away with it. Hodges said that wouldn't happen.

Hodges blames a power surge for disrupting the computer program before they printed the mailing labels, and says he's trying to figure out how many voters may have received more than one ballot.
