Poll worker chokes voter in Kentucky

More voter intimidation:

A poll worker at the United Auto Workers hall on Fern Valley Road wasarrested after he was accused of assaulting a voter, said Lt. Col. CarlYates, a spokesman for the Jefferson County Sheriffs’ Office.

Theworker, whose name has not been released, has been charged withinterfering with an election and fourth-degree assault, said Yates, whohad not other details.

Paula McCraney, a spokeswoman for theJefferson County Clerk, said the poll worker was accused of choking andpushing the voter out of the door. Election officials called the policeand when an officer arrived, the voter wanted to file charges, McCraneysaid.

“That about tops off the day,” McCraney said.

It is not my intention to dig for stories that deal with this sort of thing.  If I had it my way, I would be focusing more on the campaigns themselves.  But there are so many reports of voter intimidation today that this is becoming hard to ignore.
