Kansas Woman Goes Into Labor at Shawnee County Elections Office While Voting
Tessa Von Fange, a longtime voter from Topeka, Kansas, went into labor shortly after visiting the Shawnee County Elections Office to cast her vote. Von Fange, who stated she rarely misses an election, initially believed her baby would arrive after her scheduled induction date. However, while at the elections office, she began experiencing labor. Her husband, Chris Von Fange, was informed by an election worker that his wife was in labor, which he described as a shocking moment. Tessa Von Fange herself remained in denial until her water broke. The couple had already chosen the name Morgan for their baby, who was born at 1:16 a.m. on November 3, weighing 8 pounds, 1 ounce. Tessa received a 'future voter' sticker at the elections office, which she placed on her belly.
