Holly Solomon

A pregnant Arizona woman who “hated” President Obama and was upset by last Tuesday’s election result allegedly ran down her husband in a Jeep SUV because he didn’t vote, multiple news outlets are reporting.

Politico:

Holly Solomon, 28, and her husband Daniel, 36, got into an argument Saturday night over his failure to vote, news reports say. She then chased him around a parking lot in the Jeep, screaming, before hitting him as he tried to run to a bigger street, witnesses told police, according to the report.

“The husband told investigators that Solomon believed her family was going to face hardship from President Barack Obama’s re-election,” CBS News reported.

He is in critical condition at a Scottsdale, Ariz. medical center, while she was booked on charges of aggravated assault and domestic violence, the report said.

According to an ABC affiliate in Arizona, “Daniel Solomon told police his wife ‘just hated Obama’ and was very angry he was re-elected.”

Incidentally, Mitt Romney carried the state and its 11 electoral votes.
