From the Milwaukee Journal Sentinal:

Wife Hits Estranged Husband With SUV As He  Attempts To Prevent Her From Voting

The pair had been arguing early Tuesday afternoon over who she was going to vote for in the gubernatorial recall election primary, said Chippewa Falls Police Chief Wendy L. Stelter.

"She was planning on voting for a certain candidate, and it wasn't the candidate he wanted her to vote for," Stelter said.

When Amanda Radle, 30, attempted to pull out, Jeffrey Radle, 36, stood in front of her, according to a police department statement. She nudged him with the vehicle several times.

Each time he would "retreat and re-establish his ground," the release said. "At one point he climbed onto the hood."

When she finally attempted to drive around him, Jeffrey Radle jumped in front of the vehicle and was hit. Amanda Radle left the scene and went to the police department to report the incident, the release said.

"These crazy liberal nuts are always pulling this crap," said Radle's brother...

Yeah, clearly she's 'the crazy one'...

Now that's a story to tell on the campaign trail.

The last line is the killer one. What the ever-loving fuck. I mean, WHAT.

LOL, politics apparently does not lend itself to domestic bliss.

Adding to the peculiarity... IT WAS A PRIMARY!

Boggles.

I'm glad she ran him over (assuming he's not dead?). What an idiot.

[shipperx.livejournal.com]

Nope. Not dead. Had to go to the hospital, though and in a bit of karma was there long enough that he missed his own opportunity to vote.

What makes it all doubly weird though was that it was a primary. All that it was deciding was which democratic candidate will run against the GOP governor in JULY!

God knows what he'll do when it's an actual election.

He sounds like the ultimate control freak. She should dump him as soon as he's released from the hospital.

They were apparently already separated. We can sort of see why...

Why the hell was she still married to such an asshole?

[eilowyn.livejournal.com]

That is the greatest icon!

Oh my God - forget the "crazy liberal nuts" crack. It's obvious this woman's husband believes his wife and her thoughts and opinions BELONG TO HIM. How 19th century of him!

Yeah, I really want this sort of conservative to take over the country.

What? It's not that they are on opposite sides politically but that they each like a different candidate in the same party? Wow. This is when I appreciate my own husband.

Going by what the brother said, I'm gathering the dude is a right-winger pissed that his wife was voting in the recall of the sitting GOP governor.

[shipperx.livejournal.com]

Read the comments to the article. Apparently, it's a problem that women have the right to vote.

What the hell? That man should be lobotomized for trying to control his wife. No man has that right.

Too bad she now can't also run him over or delay him when it's his turn to vote. What a chimp. I say someone needs to put his species into endangered status. Anyone up for a little light chimp hunting? Oh wait, I've offended the more sensible chimpanzees. How crazy of me.
