Don't Wear Obama T-Shirts To The Polls?

Yep, It's True. According to the Secretary of State (of California) & the Cheif of Elections Division, this is called "electioneering"? You cannot wear a sign, button, pin, or any item of clothing that campaigns and solicits votes for a candidate within 100 feet of the polls. This is a violation of the First Amendment if you ask me, but I'm sure there is some sort of law that backs this up. Anywho, I will be wearing my shirt tomorrow...just when I go to vote at the polls I'll throw on a sweatshirt or something I guess. Nevertheless, I will be wearing my Obama shirt tomorrow.
