Multnomah deputy in trouble over pro-Trump broadcast

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) –A Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office corrections deputy is facing an internal investigation after allegedly broadcasting pro-Donald Trump sentiments from a department vehicle while driving past voters.

The Oregonian/OregonLive quotes a witness as saying 25 to 30 people were standing in line in downtown Portland to leave off their ballots on Tuesday when a sheriff’s office car went by and the words “Vote Trump” came out of the car megaphone.

A spokesman for the sheriff’s office, Lt. Chad Gaidos, said a corrections deputy is facing an internal investigation because of the alleged incident. He did not identify the corrections deputy.
