New York – Conservative pundit Ann Coulter is clear on where she stands on politics, but where she votes is another matter.
Officials in Palm Beach County, Fla., are reportedly investigating why Coulter voted in the wrong precinct in a local election in February, even though a poll worker tried to stop her.
Knowingly voting in the wrong precinct is a felony in Florida, and Coulter has hired a former U.S. attorney to defend her.
Coulter registered to vote at her Realtor’s address when she bought a $1.8 million Palm Beach home last year. But instead of filing a change of address as a poll worker told her to do, she just voted in the wrong precinct, the Palm Beach Post reported.
Coulter denied knowingly voting in the wrong district in a Fox News Channel interview Tuesday night, and said she actually lives in New York.
She called reporters who wrote about the case “retarded” and flayed Palm Beach officials, saying: “I think the syphilis has gone to their brains.”
Meanwhile, Coulter is also registered to vote in New Canaan, Conn. – though the local registrar told the Daily News that it is illegal to be registered in two places at once.
