ALBANY, GA (WALB) - There are allegations of voter fraud, as a Dougherty County family claims the vote of a mentally challenged relative was stolen.
They say the adult day rehab program where Jack Justice attends took him to vote, without the family's permission. What's worse is Justice says the person helping him wouldn't cast the ballot for his choice for President.
Jack Justice has been voting since he turned 18. Typically his family takes him to their neighborhood precinct. This time Primus Industries, his adult day rehab program, took him to vote. His family was shocked, but what shocked them more was that Jack claims that his aide commandeered his vote.
"They told me to vote for Obama, I said no I wanted to vote for McCain," said Jack Justice, a voter.
Jack Justice says the person helping him, selected Obama's name. His sister says the family is often asked to sign a permission slips for trips, but for this they were never notified.
"No permission slips, no nothing, he just came home and said he had gone," said Nancy Justice, Jack's sister.

Election officials say the family's only option is to file a challenge to the election results. The Justice's are considering their options.

Sounds tortious to me—get a lawyer
This got some coverage locally.
Obviously he is a Democrat
What sick SOB’s
First off this is GA— good luck to the idiot who thinks his scam on a mentally challenged patient will turn the tide here in GA! Good Lord, Obama supporters are fools...
Second— what a damned thug! You have to steal a man’s vote for your Messiah? truly... these Obama supporters are thugs. This MUST be a civil rights violation at the least, criminal most likely.
If I were this family— there would be SEVERAL law suits coming....not for any other reason than this man deserves to have his rights protected.....
I have never seen such outright fear of truth and fairness...the left is truly mad, insane, sociopathic....and for what?
Thuggery— pure thuggery....they care nothing of anyone’s rights.....nothing.....
He should go to the magistrate’s office and place a charge that his civil rights were violated.
Goes on all the time across the country with absentee ballots sent to nursing homes.
My wife was working at the local precinct today handing out voting guides and said some of the ladies working inside came out and were really angry because a guy who had been bussed in by the job corps came up to them and told them he was told that if he didn’t vote for Obama he wouldn’t be allowed to vote.
