Poll of the Day > I want to walk into the polls wearing a hand made Trump 2020 shirt.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Only to take it off in the voting booth to reveal a 2020 Biden shirt, after I vote for mostly democrats.

I feel like this could be funny, but I also feel like nobody is going to notice or care at my voting station for it to even draw a reaction.

You wouldn't be allowed in.

Could always make both shirts tear-away and have just a plain t-shirt on underneath, just to make some poor poll worker's day a bit weirder.

I've always wanted to get a bunch of contradictory bumper stickers for my car just to throw people off. Like have Trump and Hillary stickers. But I also don't want bumper stickers on my car either

I'm seen people voting wearing t-shirts supporting candidates, but I guess it's possible that some more fascist areas might have anti-speech laws blocking people from wearing clothes to the polls.

Pretty sure the rules are universal (for reasons outlined the last time you tried to insist they were unreasonable but were unable to defend that position), there's just variation in how stringently they're enforced. Leniency is to be expected in areas where it doesn't have a history of getting out of hand, and in areas where it does, I'd expect them to be more strictly followed.

youre not allowed to wear that crap at the polls out of respect for everyone.

I'm 90% sure that you and others have completely misinterpreted and misapplied the actual rules. The rules -- which are stated outside the polling place -- block campaign volunteers from bringing in signs and campaigning within the space. I've lived in quite a few places over the years and voted in all of them and have seen people in there with political shirts. The laws themselves are generally in place to avoid people soliciting within the space itself, not voters from wearing clothes.

yes he would. people can wear anything they want to polling stations. it's only if you're actively campaigning for someone while you're there that they turn you away. so you can't be walking around shouting "SUCH AND SUCH 2020!!!!!!" or badgering people.

Take it from me. The staff doesn't care. They're likely going to be tried and surviving off of coffee (especially if you do this later in the day). As for the voters, they probably won't notice and it will likely only be a few scattered people who would even see you anyways.
