A Naples, Fla., poll worker has been fired for allegedly telling a Democratic voter Friday that she could not cast her ballot, according to a report.

The Collier County Supervisor of Elections said the interaction took place at the North Collier Regional Park Center.

Ellen Hemrick, a Naples resident, said a poll worker began “aggressively” questioning her when she went to turn in her ballot at the polling site.

“I was aggressively asked why I wasn’t using the mail-in ballot, did I have it with me and do I have to surrender it,” said Hemrick.

Hemrick said the poll worker told her that she could not vote because she is a Democrat and it was a Republican primary.

“I said, ‘What do you mean? I can’t vote?’” Hemrick told local station WBBH-TV. “And she said ‘No! This a Republican primary! The Democrats had theirs in March’.”

Hemrick said she was eventually allowed to vote. Afterward, she called the Collier County Supervisor of Elections.

A spokesperson for the group told WBBH-TV that the poll worker has been fired.

Annisa Karim, chairwoman of the Collier County Democratic Party, likened the incident to “voter suppression.”

“We have no way of knowing how many people were turned away and what happened to Ms. Hemrick was basically voter suppression,” Karim said. “This is a grave concern moving into the general election.”
