You know, the one with five sides, near Washington.

You can't bring guns (or knives, if the blades are over 3.5 inches).

And that's with lots of people who are highly trained in using guns, knives and lots of other things that can make you have a real bad day.

Why would you want to take a gun to a polling place? Itdontmakenosense.
