Leave your buttons at home on election day

from staff reports



If you're planning on wearing your McCain or Obama t-shirts and buttons to the polls on election day — think again. No political material, including shirts, buttons, stickers, and hats, can be brought within 150 feet of a voting poll.

If you show up to the polls in campaign garb of any kind, expect to be sent home to change. Wearing them there, said circuit clerk Donna Jill Johnson, is against the law. Stickers on cars are not a problem, because they don't generally get within 150 of the actual voting machine, but clothes are another story.
