Henry Co. Felons Arrested for Illegal Voting

By Chris Taylor

Paris, TN – Six people in Henry County, Tennessee have been arrested for voting illegally, either casting a ballot or registering to vote despite being convicted felons. Police arrested Paris residents Euline Jenkins, Nykkeisha Jumper, Gene Milliken, and Danny Tharpe, as well as Roy Pollack of Buchanan and Jeffrey Lewis of Henry on either illegal voting or illegal registration charges. The Paris Post Intelligencer reports both state and local election officials are focusing lately on voter corruption, purging felons from the state election rolls.
