Ohio.com – Poll workers clash at Falls nursing home
Poll workers from opposing sides in the presidential race apparently clashed in a physical altercation Friday at a Cuyahoga Falls nursing home when one accused the other of improperly marking a ballot. George Manos, the 75-year-old Republican, told police that Edith Walker, the 73-year-old Democrat, jumped on his back and struck him in the head three to four times with her fists. Manos said two other elections workers had to pull Walker off his back, according to a report filed with Cuyahoga Falls police.

Manos said it happened after he accused Walker of ballot tampering, and he wants to prosecute.

The incident, which occurred about noon at Gardens of Western Reserve nursing home, is being investigated by both the police and the Summit County elections board. The board probe could lead to a closer examination of the other votes with which Walker was involved. The alleged assault piqued the interest of Sen. John McCain’s presidential campaign — as the voter in question reportedly wanted to vote for McCain but her ballot was initially marked for Sen. Barack Obama.

It’s starting to get ugly out there…….

    Any old woman who can jump on a man’s back, pummel him, and intelligent mark his ballot, should not be in a nursing home. Why isn’t she out working a job and supporting America rather than taking it easy off of this socialized medicine program?

    McCain’s army is on the March!!!!!

  2. Haw! The guy got beat up by a girl! He’s a pussy, just like all his chickenhawk bretheren.

    I am with MM. HAW! HAW! HAW!

  4. Can anyone find one story where (proven by records like this and Acorn) Republicans are stealing the votes? What does that say about Democrats and the Almighty Obama?

    “Proven by records”?? wtf are you talking about?

    As to the Gay Old Party stealing votes, how about Katherine Harris and her illegal “scrubbing” of the voter lists in Florida, removing anyone who was a felon (whether or not they had had their voting rights reinstated), anyone who had a name sorta somewhat like a felon’s, etc? How about the “Volusia Error”, where Dick Cheney’s butt buddies at Diebold registered an unexplainable DROP OF SIXTEEN THOUSAND VOTERS in a democratic county, midway through the election?

    That question is too much of a softball. What are you, Katie Couric? You’re not dealing with Sarah Palin, you know. Come up with a hard question, if you can.

    Oh, btw, the county that registered the unexplainable DROP OF SIXTEEN THOUSAND VOTERS only had 600 registered voters to start with.
