Hexes and prayers flung around at Clay County GOP caucus [View all]

None of the roughly 70 people attending the Clay County GOP caucus likely expected to be on the receiving end of a curse.

“I’m a witch,” the person exclaimed. “I hex all of you!”

The crowd stirred after hearing the words. When the person ultimately left, a man in the crowd called on the group to take a minute to pray.

“We cancel that curse, that hex, in Jesus’s name,” the man said. “Amen,” the crowd replied.
