Woman Is Told She Can't Vote Because of Her Shirt
2020-09-12
[RedState] ... So She Takes It Off

In Exeter, New Hampshire Tuesday, a woman attempting to vote was told she couldn’t because of her clothes.

She was donning a t-shirt which declared, “McCain Hero, Trump Zero.”

That was deemed a form of electioneering.

As her name was checked by a poll worker, Town Moderator Paul Scafidi told the apparent anti-Trumper she couldn’t practice political suffrage with apparel sporting a candidate.

Refusing to be stripped of her right to vote, the ambitious agent of change removed her shirt about a hero and became, surely to some, the same thing.

Paul pointed out, “She could’ve just gone into the hallway and turned it inside-out.”

And he could’ve thrown her out due to indecency.

But he thought it was breast best not to:

“I could have (had her removed), but I didn’t want to exacerbate the whole thing. I don’t know if she was trying to have me get her arrested, but I thought it was better to just let things play out. I don’t think there were more than 15 voters in the building at the time and if there were any children there, I didn’t see them.”

#9  So I can't wear my Trump hat when I fill out my vote-by-mail ballot?

#8  Version I read indicated the woman who removed her shirt removed a pro-Trump shirt and the woman in the McCain Hero/Trump Zero didn't have to remove hers because "reasons".

#6  That picture wasn't up there this morning! I would have noticed!
I have it on authority (the Internet!) that women's breasts have a calming effect on men. I feel better already!

#3  McCain was a hot-dogging POS. Sure, seven years in the Hanoi Hilton must have been horrible, but having a daddy as an admiral....

Now you tell her. Smart man. :-)

Still, no pics? Didn't happen.

#1  I'm tying to think of something pertinent to say but there has been a little nip in the air and now I'm nursing a cold.
