Can we wear our MAGA hats to vote in person?

It doesn't say specifically Trump, or vote Trump, but everyone knows what it means.

I have always been weary of the no campaigning rules when voting. Does that include shirts, hats, and other clothing articles?

I honestly wouldn’t give the poll workers the knowledge of who you’re voting for. Poll watchers from the GOP aren’t as present for early voting as they will be on Election Day and I’d worry that some leftist poll volunteer might have a “special bin” for Trump supporters

No.
You can’t have any political advertisements within like 100’ of a polling place.

Depends upon the electioneering law in your jurisdiction, but I suspect that most election officials would err on the side of caution and ask you to remove it.

I wouldn’t. And I wear Trump shite all the time. I don’t want to have to beat up someone at a polling place. It’s a day of celebration. No tomfoolery.
Just go in quietly and do your business.
Walk back to to your car, put on your patriot coat, turn up the John Mellencamp and peel out.

Not to be a Debbie downer, short answer is no, in Louisiana, if there is candidate associated with it as that would constitute as campaigning too close to a polling location.

I wouldn’t. Libs are insane. Don’t give them a reason to mess with you. Go vote and wait for the victory party!

You could probably get away with wearing a MAGA mask.

Joe is going to wear his party's mask to the polls.

One of aggiestanks people would still call you racist for wearing a flag.


OP, get in and get out. Hoist the TRUMP flag in the parking lot on the way out.

If they still do exit polls, keep them guessing. Im not wearing anything that signifies who I voted for.

I get that you'd like to see some Dems get triggered. But, this is the one time when it's a good idea to not give anyone any idea who you're voting for. It's secret ballot for a reason. As someone pointed out, one of the volunteers might be a real kook and dispatch with your ballot. Why take the chance?

Have your maga hat folded in your back pocket when you go in the voting booth. After voting, before you open the curtain to leave the booth put your maga hat back on. Walk out with with both fists raised and pumping. That’s what I’m going to do me.

I’m just wearing a red Oakley Golf Polo to vote today. Subtle enough.

So you can't wear a hat with four letters on it to go vote at a church for a political office while the constitution guarantees us to the separation of church and state?

No wonder we have so many lawyers in this country.
