Who was Henry E. Petersen?

Henry E. Petersen was a United States Assistant Attorney General during the Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford administrations. Petersen conducted many of the Watergate questionings and was perhaps the only one conducting research into allegations of modern time US voting fraud as early as the 1970s.

The violation allegedly occurred during the September 1970 Florida primary elections when Kenneth Collier, later a co-author of the book "Votescam", was a candidate for U.S. Congressman running against the incumbent Claude Pepper on the Democratic ticket.
