Not Happy Obama Won, Arizona Woman Runs Down Husband With Car For Not Voting
An Arizona woman, in despair at the re-election of Democratic
President Barack Obama, ran down her husband with the family car in
suburban Phoenix on Saturday because he failed to vote in the election,
police said on Monday.
Holly Solomon, 28, was arrested after running over husband Daniel
Solomon following a wild chase that left him pinned underneath the
vehicle.
Daniel Solomon, 36, was in critical condition at a local hospital,
but is expected to survive, Gilbert police spokesman Sergeant Jesse
Sanger said.
Police said Daniel Solomon told them his wife became angry over his
“lack of voter participation” in last Tuesday’s presidential election
and believed her family would face hardship as a result of Obama winning
another term.
Witnesses reported the argument broke out on Saturday morning in a
parking lot and escalated. Mrs Solomon then chased her husband around
the lot with the car, yelling at him as he tried to hide behind a light
pole, police said. He was struck after attempting to flee to a nearby
street.
Obama won the national election with 332 electoral votes compared
with 206 for Republican challenger Mitt Romney. Arizona’s 11 electoral
votes were won by Romney. [Reuters]
