Kitty Dukakis, the wife of former Massachusetts governor and presidential candidate Michael Dukakis, showed up to the Hingham polls today, but not to vote.

Dukakis stood near the voting area of all three of the town's polling stations, greeting voters on their way in, a tactic that angered many sign holders and voters.

According to Lieutenant Michael Peraino with the Hingham Police Department, the police were informed of Dukakis’s trips around town and were prepared to deal with them.

LOL. Put out an APB: visibly intoxicated woman stumbling around from polling place to polling place harassing voters.

Mixed with vanilla extract. I was living in MA then. It was a hoot, and kind of sad watching Mike being totally clueless and disconnected from the reality that was his wife's affliction.
