Shenanigans in St. Louis

[Svafa]

Someone shared these on facebook. The first is an advertisement made to look like a sample ballot; it was handed out outside of polling places.

And the second is a picture of HRC signs flanking the entrance of a polling place. Both have been reported.

Unfortunately, I'm not sure whether either is technically illegal, because by crappy MO law, you can campaign up to 20 feet from a polling place. But if you ever see or encounter anything that seems iffy, definitely report it--better safe than sorry!


Anyone who sees any other shady stuff when going to vote today, report it!

1. Sadly, if they're outside 20ft, nothing you can do. EXCEPT

Go put up bernie signs, and print off bernie material to hand out, as well

[Svafa]

3. Exactly. I have no idea how close the people handing out the ads were. Hopefully the person who

originally posted has some solid evidence if they were too close to campaign.

2. I would take those signs and toss them.

7. So would I.

4. It's disheartening to see that people can be so easily swayed.

5. You may want to post those phone numbers in an OP in the group

We all have phones in our cameras too - REPORT anything untoward and TAKE PHOTOS!!!!

Thank you for this information!

[Svafa]

9. Done.

[bernbabe]

6. btw

That "vote here" sign should designate the polling place, which means the polling place extends to at least where that sign is. The Hillary signs are too close.

8. Thank you for the clarification. I wasn't sure whether

"polling place" is defined as the actual doors to the building or if it extends to the entrance to the parking lot/site in general.

[bernbabe]

11. I don't know the actual definition

But that looks like an entrance, one would think those signs shouldn't be there.

[Rebkeh]

12. MO law, no less than 25 feet from the front door

[bernbabe]

13. So it depends on

If that is considered a front door.

10. I guarantee you that if I was in Missouri I would vote for BERNIE !!!

No ifs, ans. or buts.

However it is good to have vigilance.

How far will they go with intimidation?
