Most polling places and election laws frown on or outright don't allow campaigning within X number of feet of the premise. It's why there'll be a collection of signs when you turn in the parking lot but none at the door.

I've seen places in AL ask voters to turn shirts inside out etc so personally I wouldn't wear anything related to a political campaign.

Likely in all states, the answer is no.

People have voted privately forever for many many reasons. Some of which have been listed.

You’d only be asking for nonsense or worst case your vote to be tossed.

I would not do that. Wear a USA shirt if you want to piss off the skinny dominos.

a) OP is dumb. there's no reason to do this. i'm hoping it tongue in cheek.
b) wearing a MAGA hat is the equivalent to fraudulently casting 1000s of votes, obviously.

Agreeing with the premise that wearing MAGA, a slogan associated with one candidate, would most likely be seen as a violation of electioneering, just like wearing something with the O logo thingie that Obama used would be.

That said, masks in general are much more closely associated with one party than the other, and they have become, very much, political signage as well. Does anyone else see this as problematic in terms of electioneering?

Wear standard patriotic gear, if you must. The Left hate that & no one will ask ya to remove it.

Your allegiance will certainly be understood.

To what end? I fail to see the reason for doing so. We should be able, but too much attention seeker here.

Makes you an easy target. Both for poll workers and any left-wing nuts that might show up to intimidate. Silent majority. For a reason.

A woman glared at me in 2016 in Milwaukee when she scanned my ballot into the machine and saw that I had bubbled in Trump. She didn’t shoot the glare at me right then, but rather a few seconds later as she confirmed the ballot took. This was for the primary.

WHy on earth are we bubbling in votes like we are voting for the homecoming queen?

I guess i'm spoiled with how LA does things, but it's impossible to have any voter fraud in LA.
