A Davidson County grand jury has indicted a former poll official on
charges she voted illegally, Election Commission officials said. Vancey
Voorhies, who worked at the Stratford High School voting precinct,
faces two felony counts — illegal voting and making a false
entry on an official election document — and one misdemeanor
count of official misconduct, said Lionel Barrett, senior adviser
to the administrator of elections. Voorhies is accused of voting under
her own name during early voting last summer, then voting under someone
else's name on August 2, when Metro Nashville held its general election
for mayor, vice mayor and council seats. Voorhies is scheduled to
appear in Davidson County Criminal Court on January 9. The Nashville
Tennessean has rest
of the story.
