Secretary of State Beth Chapman says her office has received additional allegations of voter fraud in Perry County in west Alabama.
This time the complaint concerns a June 10 court-ordered runoff election for mayor of Marion, the Perry County seat.
Chapman says the newest claims concern a complaint she received from a citizen that votes were being sold in Perry County for "$40 and a rock" of crack cocaine.
Chapman's office is planning to turn over the complaint to Attorney General Troy King.
Chapman's office earlier turned over to the attorney general's office allegations of possible voter fraud during the June 3 party runoff elections in Marion, Lowndes, Bullock and Jackson counties.
