I am **SO** glad I don't live in a city.
City folk seem so easily offended - by just about anything and everything that they disagree with, and then they want to sue someone because of it. Hell, city folk can't even hang their laundry out to dry in their own backyards anymore - afterall, it might offend someone!
Nevermind that it saves energy and money; we just can't have Aunt Maggies' drawers flapping in the breeze...
This is really about electioneering law, not city living or being offended. Every State has a similar law for ALL polling places within the State. Any country bumpkin could make the same call, I hope. :)Quote:

The car wasn't towed, but an officer wrote her a ticket.
"The officer seemed as confused as I did and a little uncomfortable," she said. "(The ticket) stated that my car is a campaign vehicle, which obviously took me aback.""
You are correct.Quote:

Valid Ticket.Quote:
SB 128 was approved by the Legislature … The measure changes the crime of “electioneering at polling places” to “electioneering.” It expands the law to include “attempting to persuade or influence” eligible voters to vote for or against a particular candidate.
Thats what I get for jumping the gun...:rolleyes:Quote:
