SOME VOTES DO TURN UP AT CEMETERY
Chicago Tribune
March 20, 1986
For two decades, Rosemarie Kovarik has been an election judge at a cemetery.
”The voting has been rather constant but not very heavy,” Kovarik said Tuesday. ”I don`t think we`ve had a dull moment all day. We always have a lot of fun here on election day.”
Kovarik is a Democrat, but her cemetery polling place is not in Chicago, where, according to political legend and any number of federal grand juries, the dead routinely vote–and vote Democratic–on election day, particularly in such down-to-the-wire races as John F. Kennedy`s run for the presidency in 1960.
