Shocking: Election judge dies mysteriously as US election hots up
CNN is reporting that the death of an election judge has forced a Texas county to extend voting in the region by two hours.
In a message passed across by Judge Clay Jenkins, the overnight demise of the unnamed judge has forced this extension, while there are concerns about how the judge lost his life at such a crucial period of the nation’s democracy.
According to CNN: “Polls in Dallas County will stay open until 9 p.m. CST after voting was delayed in the morning due to the death of the judge, whose name was not immediately released. A county official also declined to say how the judge died.”
Read Jenkins’s tweets below:
