That’s funny. As far as I’m concerned, they can make me take it outside. I’ve brought umbrellas into the polling area and they are a lot more dangerous than a plunger. But your point is well taken and you are most likely right.
I think the reason I could probably get away with it is I live in a very sedate area so some of the nasty things than happen in other places just don’t happen here.
What would be great is to just take a plunger to your polling place and just leave it outside ... and just leave it there when you leave.
