Columnist Coulter in hot water over voting (CNN smears Ann)

WEST PALM BEACH, Florida (AP) -- Conservative columnist Ann Coulter has refused to cooperate in an investigation into whether she voted in the wrong precinct, so the case will probably be turned over to prosecutors, Palm Beach County's elections chief said Wednesday. Elections Supervisor Arthur Anderson said his office has been looking into the matter for nearly nine months, and he would turn over the case to the state attorney's office by Friday. Coulter's attorney did not immediately return a call Wednesday. Nor did her publicist at her publisher, Crown Publishing. Knowingly voting in the wrong precinct is a felony punishable by up to five years in prison. Anderson's office received a complaint in February that Coulter voted in the wrong precinct during a February 7 Palm Beach town council election. Anderson said a letter was sent to Coulter on March 27 requesting that she clarify her address for the voting records "or face the possibility of her voter registration being rescinded." Three more letters were sent to Coulter and her attorney, but she has yet to respond with the information requested, Anderson said. In July, Anderson said, he received a letter from Coulter's attorney, Marcos Daniel Jimenez D'Clouet. The letter said the attorney would only discuss the matter in person or by telephone because, he complained, Anderson had given details to the media. Anderson said the matter had to be discussed in writing. The right-wing commentator also authored a book that said some September 11 widows were "enjoying their husbands' deaths."

Nine months???
Ahh, yes.... Another sterling testament to the pathetic incompetence of government.

That pic is from a major magazine, though I don't recall which.

Man, this smells like a classic set-up if I ever saw one. I think Ann is quietly laughing herself silly. These bozos in West Palm Beach better be very, very careful. I am pretty sure they're about to step in something....

Thanks for the info, Sloth -- it's gotta be out there somewhere.

> Ann is widely known to be a good shot, and there are numerous true photos of her with a variety of firearms.

Like this one, which is on www.anncoulter.com (also www.anncoulter.org). Click the pic to go to the page on her site that has this pic.

Now, as to why she doesn't have the great pistol pic on her site, I can't say, but I suppose it's because it's a really rather sexy photo (I've heard it called "girl-gun soft porn") and she may feel it would offend some of her visitors.

They love to see her put in prison. The Drive Bys are sallivating for Ann's conviction on a voting felony.

dumb ann needs to stop drinking....

[denydenydeny]

Somehow Rafael Resindez (the illegal alien serial killer) managed to vote in two presidential elections in between murdering Americans, and somehow he wasn't prosecuted for it. Apparently Ann is more dangerous than serial killers.

> dumb ann needs to stop drinking....

What makes you say that? I don't think I've ever heard of her having a drinking problem. You wouldn't be trolling, would you?

[SmoothTalker]

"Apparently Ann is more dangerous than serial killers"

To the liberal agenda she sure is.

[bray]

Bet she is so scared. This could get fun!

Pray for W and The Election

nice try newbie...

> nice try newbie...

I readily acknowledge your much longer history on FR. But that doesn't prevent me from questioning your accusation that Coulter has a drinking problem that adversely affects her actions (e.g. getting confused and voting in the wrong place).

I think she's often over the top in her statements, and shows evidence of occasional lunacy mixed in with her spot-on insights, but that's part of her charm to those of us here on FR.

My question is, Do you have reason to believe she's a lush or something?

Let's try the weather and no state taxation.

[Dr. Scarpetta]

I was monitoring CNN this morning, and they covered this so-called story.

[JLS]

Let's try the weather and no state taxation.

There are plenty of other such places. They could live in Nassau Co. or Jacksonville/Duval, or Sarasota just in FL. Texas has a warm climate. As does Alabama'coast and the FL panhandle.

Sorry, but the warm weather and no state income tax excuse does not fly.

[justshutupandtakeit]

How can you vote in the wrong precinct? Even in Chicago you have to be registered in the precinct to vote. This is completely contrived or just more RAT incompetence.

Screw 'em.

CNN.com is really busy today, on Netscape they have this headline: "Top News
- Productivity Slows to a Standstill"

I can't help wondering how this is possible with employment at an all time high, is everyone just sitting on their hands today?

[Prime Choice]

Forget any so-called "October surprise," the Dhimmicrats have the long knives out for a "November surprise" for us...starting with our pundits.

Gee...if only Ann had been a welfare mom on crack voting for Kerry. Then she'd be a saint in the eyes of the leftist media.

[Prime Choice]

I can't help wondering how this is possible with employment at an all time high, is everyone just sitting on their hands today?

CNN is just now claiming that "jobless claims" are suddenly soaring.

They're really working overtime to sway this election, I tell ya.

Snicker. PB County takes 9 months to investigate the possibility of one person voting in the wrong precinct.

And the Kerry Democrats call the military stupid.

I think this is about to get good.
