“I was standing here waiting to vote, and a gentleman…said this flag was an item of protest and symbol of hatred,” Reader said. “I clearly explained it was an American flag, he said it’s not in color, I was not allowed to wear it.

Who is surprised by this.

To the Leftists and the Democrats ....... the American Flag is a "trigger", a symbol of HATE.
This is where this Nation is today ... support the American Flag, Fly the American Flag

and it proves you are a White Supremisist and a Nazi.

Stupid bigoted mistake by the volunteer. That person should never be allowed to work at a polling place from here on out. He eventually was allowed to vote.

That man should be arrested for disorderly conduct. And if he was trying to block me from voting, I would have removed him from my personal space.

Agreed. An American flag is neither electioneering nor a symbol of hatred. The poll worker was in the wrong. I'm glad the voter was eventually allowed to cast his ballot.

Unfrigginbelievable.

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.

The communist in Ca. want to exercise their authority against the American Flag and all it represents.

I wore a small American flag patch on my hat and voted in Fl. without a problem but I was ready to defend it too.

So turn the shirt inside and out and vote and go home.

Snowflake getting all fired up about an over zealous poll worker.
