A sneaky way to suppress voters for Sanders [View all]

Some new Twitter accounts are encouraging people to proudly and loudly wear their Bernie paraphernalia.

Friends, DO NOT wear any campaign buttons etc when you vote tomorrow. Also, if you see any of the Clintons (Bill, Hillary, or Chelsea) hanging around within 100'ft of a polling place, call the police and have them arrested.
The Attorney General voting problems hotline 800-771-7755 or email civil.rights@ag.ny.gov at any time between 6 a.m. and 9 p.m
Here is the law:
New York Election Law § 8-104. Polls
1. ...While the polls are open no person shall do any electioneering within the polling place, or in any public street, within a one hundred foot radial measured from the entrances designated by the inspectors of election, to such polling place or within such distance in any place in a public manner; and no political banner, button, poster or placard shall be allowed in or upon the polling place or within such one hundred foot radial.

Please spread the word!
