Power-crazed poll worker

Voting in Louisville can be hazardous to your health.

According to the Courier-Journal, voter William Miller's ballot snagged in going through the voting machine Tuesday morning, and when poll worker Jeffery Steitz examined the rejected ballot, he saw that Miller hadn't voted for judges. Steitz declared that was the reason the ballot was rejected, and insisted Miller had to vote for judges.

When Miller insisted he didn't, Steitz allegedly grabbed Miller by the throat and threw him out of the UAW hall, which was serving as a polling place. According to one report, Miller went back in and Steitz threw him out again. Finally, the cops arrived, arrested Steitz, and Miller got to cast a new ballot. Presumably without voting for judges.

Because no matter what some power-crazed poll worker may say, you can leave blank whatever you want to leave blank. Pundits are talking about angry voters? What about angry poll workers?
