<p>According to an official at <a href="http://queens-politics.com/" target="_blank">Queens-Politics.com</a>, a Korean American interpreter at P.S. 20 in Flushing, Queens was expelled by a poll coordinator earlier this evening when he was caught telling a voter whom to choose in the local and national elections. Sang Soo Park, a Board of Elections interpreter, was overheard encouraging a voter to fill out an exclusively Democratic ballot. Daniel Baek, a Korean American attorney and poll watcher, said that he heard Park tell a voter that selecting President Obama was the right choice.</p>
<p>Park was working in New York’s sixth congressional district, where State <a style="color: #595959;" href="http://www.2014airjordanfemme.com/free-run-4.0-v3-femmes">free run 4.0 v3 femmes</a> Assemblywoman Grace Meng is attempting to become New York’s first Asian American elected to Congress. The Board of Elections poll coordinator later removed Park from his duties after &#8220;helping&#8221; voters all day. A similar incident occurred earlier today at the polls at St. Mary’s Nativity Church – also in Flushing.</p>
