My poling place is the Pandora Lodge #2, so I will of course, open carry while I vote.

During the last Presidential primaries, they had a Democrat booth and a Republican booth. You had to state which one you wanted.
When I stated "Republican," people in line actually laughed.
So I'd LOVE to OC when I vote, just to see the droppings on the floor left by my fellow residents.

Didn't know they could do that. Not that I care that people know I vote R, but for some it could be an intimidating factor.

I wonder what they would say if I said I was a Federalist or a Constitutionalists or a member of the Lemonade Party or my personal favorite the Democratic-Republican Party. Do you think they would set up another booth just for me? I don't think it is fair that a democrat or a republican get their own booth and my party doesn't. I wonder how many :what: and :banghead: I would get at the polling booths?

@Roscoe
No those parties do not have primaries. The Federalist and the Democrat-Republican parties were both parties from the founding years of the States. The Lemonade party as far as I know is a made up party from a fictional book called called "The kid who ran for President." I was just posing a hypothetical question of what would happen if I responded to being asked if I was Democrat or Republican with some completely off the wall response.
But back on topic, I also vote in a school so carrying while I vote is a no go for me too. I think we need to push to move our polling places to somewhere else so we can carry. :lol:

Wouldn't something along those lines work in an instance like this, but rather for schools?
As I also am required to sacrifice one right to exercise another. My polling place is a school, too.

Isn't there a similar push to have restrictions lifted for courthouses when used for purposes other than criminal court?

When I voted in the primary two summers ago, the person in line in front of me stated that they wanted a Democratic ballot and the POLL OFFICIAL made some remark along the lines of "oh good, another one". I was not carrying my voice recorder, and it may have not even picked it up if I had, but I was nearly floored.
So much for impartial polling officials.

I do that most evera time. Never had an issue.
I really want to camp out outside wearing a black panther costume. Headpiece, black tail, the whole enchilada. I hear that it is legal now. I even get to harass and intimidate voters.
I promise not to carry if I can find a costume, just to make some of you bedwetters sleep dry through the night. I keed.
