    The host of a weekend gathering of religious conservatives seeking consensus on an alternative presidential candidate to GOP front-runner Mitt Romney denied charges that balloting was rigged to give Rick Santorum the nod over rivals Newt Gingrich and Rick Perry.

    Paul Pressler, a former judge and architect of the “conservative resurgence” movement in the Southern Baptist Convention in the 1980s, disputed a Washington Times article about a weekend gathering at Pressler’s ranch near Houston claiming that organizers manipulated votes to guarantee that Santorum, a former senator and Roman Catholic, would come away with the group’s endorsement.

    The rest of the story is at http://www.abpnews.com/content/view/7072/53/

    Anyone who can verify or deny the integrity of the article?
