Poll worker who has since died knew she had COVID -- and worked anyway

Nearly 2,000 voters cast ballots on Election Day at the Blanchette Park Memorial Hall polling site where the woman worked, but it’s unclear whether any voter might have had direct contact with her.

“We don’t have any idea how many people would have had contact with this person,” Enger told The Post.

Some St. Charles County residents who voted at the polling place told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch that they are angry and concerned about the potential exposure.

“For me to show up and do my civic duty … and to be exposed in that instance when I have been as careful as I have,” Maggie Pohlmeier, a St. Charles doctor and mom, told the Post-Dispatch. “I am completely irate over this.”
