I like it
I was thinking about dragging an empty chair behind my truck to the polls.
I like that idea, as long as it is just outside of the legal limits of campaign material at the polling place, and that distance varies by state.
The presstitutes will be all over that!
If you eliminate the sign, you can place the chair closer.
There are often signs “NO POLLING within 100’” so you might not get within that limit with the sign. What can they do without a sign.
Such objects are easily considered "electioneering" within the prescribed boundaries for the polling place...
Cool idea... wrong place...
jmho... no offense...
If I did that here, I’d be labeled racist.
But, then this is MA....
Or, put one up with a sign outside the limits, but see if you can stage a few without signs inside, just to see the indignation of the ‘rats as they accuse the existence of a simple, empty chair as “electioneering”.
Depending on the distance from the door to the polling place to where this chair is positioned, it COULD be considered to “electioneering”, prohibited by Florida law.
Electioneering is the attempt to influence or alter voting behavior at or within the polling place. Technically, it applies to threatening action before the entrance intended to discourage “wrong” selections, or discouraging potential voters from even exercising their franchise.
Currently not enforced by the US Department of Just-Us.
No problem, just have a guy in fatigues, dreadlocks, and a beret, while wielding a billy club to guard it.
The Department of Justice will have no problem with that.
Find out how far from the entrance signs ca be placed.
Put a sign on the chair that says “Reserved for President Mitt Romney”.
I would think if the cockroach party can put their black panthers outside .voting station we could put an empty chair..
Do it. Just don’t put the POTUS sign on it. They will say it is some kind of campaign sign. Anyone that sees the empty chair will know what it is.
Good idea to put them anywhere else. Leave the electoral process alone however.
What wings n wind said.
Not in Philadelphia!
Those ‘Brothers’ will fix it for you....
I would think we could just all walk in, look around and just kinda say, “Look at all of these EMPTY CHAIRS”.....
