1. There's probably a web site

for the Federal Elections Commission.

But people can encourage others to vote for whomever, and it has nothing to do with the polls being open or not.

Places or worship, because they are tax exempt, are not supposed to get directly involved in politics, such as telling members for whom to vote, but that's widely violated.

2. Naw. The rules about politicking within x feet of a polling place don't apply to radio waves

Consider all the exhortations on DU on election days to go out and vote for Dems.

Same deal.
