Didn't this election smell bad enough already? A hazmat team had to be called on Tuesday when a Democratic National Committee bus dumped raw sewage in Georgia's Gwinnett County, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports. A worker at an auto parts store called the cops when he saw the bus—which had images of Hillary Clinton and Tim Kaine on the side and the slogan "Forward Together"—dump sewage onto the roadway and into a storm drain, 11 Alive reports. The DNC apologized for "an honest mistake," saying it has spoken to the charter bus company involved and will work with state and local officials "to determine the best course of corrective action."
