I agree that gifts should not be used to unduly influence the political process
The Senate and House Ethics Committee allows gifts of less than $50 to congressional employees.
So set the limit on the allowable value of gifts to those waiting in line to vote in Georgia at $50. If it's good enough for Congress, it's good enough for Georgians.
Bottles of water and ham sandwiches shouldn't be a problem.
Expensive bottles of wine and caviar are out.
