OCTOBER 27--A Florida man has been charged with attempting to run over
controversial Republican congresswoman Katherine Harris with his Cadillac.
According to the below Sarasota Police Department report, Barry Seltzer, 46,
told cops that he was simply exercising his "political expression" when he
drove his car at Harris and several supporters, who were campaigning last
night at a Sarasota intersection. Seltzer--pictured at right in a booking
photo--allegedly drove up on a sidewalk and headed directly for Harris
before swerving "at the last minute." Harris told officers that "she was
afraid for her life and could not move as the vehicle approached her,"
according to the report. For his part, Seltzer--who's a registered
Democrat--told cops, "I intimidated them with the car. They were standing in
the street." He added, "I did not run them down, I scared them a little!"
That explanation did not stop investigators from arresting Seltzer for
aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, a felony. Harris, Florida's former
secretary of state, is best known for her role in the aftermath of the
state's disastrous 2000 presidential election. (3 pages
