MILWAUKEE — The son of first-term U.S. Rep. Gwen Moore, D-Wis., was among five Democratic activists charged Monday with slashing the tires of vans rented by Republicans to drive voters and election monitors to the polls last November.
Sowande Omokunde and four others were charged with criminal damage to property, a felony that carries a maximum punishment of 31/2 years in prison and $10,000 in fine upon conviction.
Michael Pratt, the son of former Milwaukee acting mayor Marvin Pratt, also was among the five charged with flattening the tires on 25 vehicles rented by the state Republican Party to get out the vote and deliver poll watchers Nov. 2.
Also charged were Lewis Caldwell, Lavelle Mohammad, both from Milwaukee, and Justin Howell of Racine.
The GOP rented more than 100 vehicles that were parked in a lot adjacent to a Bush campaign office. The party planned to drive poll watchers to polling places by 7 a.m. Election Day and deliver any voters who didn't have a ride.
