Poll Worker Injured By Trump Sign Lined With Razor Blades

It’s normal for people to go a little crazy during elections, but attaching razor blades to Donald Trump signs is taking it to another level. A Texas poll worker at Collin College was left with a bloody hand after attempting to move the sign.

According to LoveBScott, the man was moving the sign because it was blocking the “vote here” sign. Instead, he ended up getting his fingers cut by the 8 razor blades attached on the bottom of the sign.

Collin County Elections Administrator Bruce Sherbet said he was bothered by what had happened.

“It wasn’t a prank as far as it looked to me it looks like something intentional to hurt somebody,” Sherbet said. “These things on the surface look one way, but you can’t jump to conclusions, which is why they need to be investigated thoroughly.”

Mike Rawlins chair of the Collin County Democratic Party sided with Bruce.

“It’s kind of a new low for someone to actually do it, not to mention doing it on public property at a polling place,” he said.

Even Collin County Republican Party Executive Director Neil Katz agreed that this was done with the intent to harm.

“They were placed in front of a vote sign so someone would have to move it It’s obvious intent was for someone to get cut,” Katz said.

So far no arrests have been made. Be careful which Trump sign you try to pull up!
