And yet, if someone shows up to vote, doesn't appear to be registered, and he insists that he is, HE'S given a provisional ballot.

Plus, this poll worker will be "restrained" if he chooses to volunteer in the future.

Yes, unfrigginbelievable.
"retrained"

Screw that. Another prime example of why people don't want Californians moving to their state, people like that can stay in Commiefornia.

Quite the opposite here. Technically I think Louisiana law simply says you can't wear anything with the name of any of the current candidates or about any of the ballot measures/constitutional amendments currently being voted on. President Trump isn't REALLY on the ballot, you see?

They let me in there with a MAGA hat and a Border Patrol shirt!!! Last year in state elections I wore a Confederate flag shirt (to protest the removal of Confederate monuments in New Orleans) and they let me in just fine. I also wasn't the only person who wore a Confederate flag shirt to the polling place.

I do happen to live in a very Republican parish where Trump won over 80% of the vote. I don't live in an incorporated city but the nearest incorporated town has a 4-1 Republican majority city council and the two bordering towns are entirely Republican on the municipal level.

It cannot have the name of a political candidate or anything about a prop on the ballot here.
Many people in line with Beto shirts and not a word said.

Hatred of the American flag, traditional American culture/values, and Christianity is the ONE thing that the disparate groups of the Democrat coalition (socialists, welfare recipients, Muslims, gays, radical feminists, illegal aliens, black nationalists, the ghetto underclass, yuppies, rich white liberals) have in common.

I'm sure if someone wore a rainbow flag shirt or a pro-Muslim shirt that would have been fine.

No, you don't EVER give in to these nutbags. You fight them to the very end and then let the world know what an ass they are.
