Florida Newspaper Says Ann Coulter Voted in the Wrong Precinct

Posted
By: E&P Staff Universal Press Syndicate columnist Ann Coulter voted in the wrong Florida precinct, according to a Palm Beach Post piece posted Wednesday on the paper's Web site.

"Palm Beach County Supervisor of Elections records show Coulter voted last week in Palm Beach's council election. Problem is: She cast her ballot in a precinct four miles north of the precinct where she owns a home -- and that could be a big no-no," Post columnist Jose Lambiet wrote. "Coulter, who owns a $1.8 million crib on Seabreeze Avenue, should have voted in Precinct 1198. It covers most homes on her street. Instead, records show, she voted in Precinct 1196, at the northern tip of the island."

Lambiet added: "Coulter registered as a Republican (no kidding!) with the supervisor's office June 24. That's three months after she bought the home and moved to Palm Beach from Manhattan. Here's the sticky part for The Right's Lady Macbeth: She wrote down an Indian Road address instead of Seabreeze on her voter's registration application. And she signed to certify the information as true."

Suzanne Frisbie, owner of the Indian Road home, said: "She never lived here. I'm Ann's Realtor, and she used this address to forward mail when she moved from New York."

According to Lambiet's column, "Florida statutes make it a third-degree felony to vote knowingly in the wrong precinct. Lying on a voter's registration can cost up to $5,000 and five years behind bars."

E&P was tipped off to Lambiet's column by blogger Brad Friedman of BradBlog.com.
