Trump Supporter Uses Pepper Spray On Voter


Story out of Jupiter, Florida:

Jupiter police are investigating the altercation between Tom Garrecht, who voted for Hillary Clinton, and Donna Tatlici, who was handing out Donald Trump literature at the site.

Tatlici, 58, said she has been at the Jupiter Community Center volunteering for a week when Garrecht, 52, arrived to vote and screamed at her, “I don’t need anyone to tell me who to vote for.”

Tatlici responded, “I’m not here to do that. I’m just here to give you the information.”

After Garrecht voted, Tatlici said he exited the polling site, charged at her and “came right into my face,” and was yelling expletives at her.

Tatlici warned Garrecht that she had pepper spray on her key chain and that he should back away.

As the shouting increased, the two got closer and she pepper-sprayed him. She said at that point Garrecht “put his hand on her shoulder” as the two continued to have words before Garrecht slammed her to the ground and “started punching her.”

Those who saw the altercation say the fight happened in front of some campaign signs for Trump and Republican candidate for U.S. House District 18 Brian Mast. The signs are a legal distance away from the polling place. Cont.
