I have voted in post offices, schools and churches and have never had a problem abiding by the rules in these facilities.

The example of a ham sandwich in a Synagogue that sitetest gave is a superb one. I can’t imagine someone being that disrespectful, but ham sandwiches are legal.

I don't think the voting part would be a problem for anyone. The issue that the article is bringing out is is it OK for non-mormons to be prohibited from drinking caffeinated drinks while serving as poll workers? Do poll worker requirements stipulate staying on post the whole time or do they allow for adequate breaks to coffee-up? As colorcountry noted, there are dress requirements for women entering these ward houses that appear to be waived for the poll workers. If this religious requirement can be waived, why not the coffee/coke requirement too?

Have you voted in a Mosque?

And would you have a problem if you had to take off your shoes, cover your head (if you are a man) or cover your face (if you are a woman) and break for prayer 5 times during the election day?
