Nursing Home Voting Altercation

(Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio) Here’s a troubling report on alleged ballot-marking impropriety at a 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.
Apparently, an accusatory finger is being pointed at Edith Walker and authorities have issued a swiss-cheese promise to review all the ballots she handled.
