Wauwatosa Alderwoman Wore 'Anti-Trump' T-Shirt To Poll: Report
According to reports, a Wauwatosa alderwoman volunteering as an election inspector on election day wore an anti-Trump T-shirt to the poll.

WAUWATOSA, WI -- Wauwatosa alderwoman Heather Kuhl has been under public scrutiny after admitting that she wore an anti-Donald Trump T-Shirt to her polling place on election day - the site where she volunteered as an election inspector.
According to a Journal Sentinel report, Kuhl posted this apology on her Facebook page before deactivating her page this week:
"While volunteering as a poll worker I wore a shirt that included profanity in another language. The decision to wear this shirt was a lapse in judgment, and I would like to apologize to any voters or poll workers that were offended by the language. I take my position as a representative of district five very seriously, and I want to assure my constituents that, while I’m certainly not perfect, I do take responsibility for my missteps and am committed to learning from them."
According to the report, Kuhl wore a shirt that displayed an anti-Trump message to the polls. When a voter complained about it, Kuhl added another layer and buttoned up a shirt over the T-Shirt.
