    My mother just voted and texted asking why Black Lives Matter masks were being allowed to be worn in the poling place, but other political messages were not. She said the election officials played dumb as to a mask with "BLM" being a political message.

    Anyone else see this kind of thing?

    I've seen ANTIFA, and a couple of BLM masks.
    I know MAGA hats aren't going to be tolerated, though.
    Or even a MAGA mask would rile the officials up.

    There was a millennial aged guy wearing a full on Biden t-shirt in the polling line down here. That's now different than carrying campaign sign. Last election they would have told him to at least turn it inside out. I think now everyone is afraid a fight will break out.

    Plus it's illegal:
    Sec. 61.010. WEARING NAME TAG OR BADGE IN POLLING PLACE. (a) Except as provided by Subsection (b), a person may not wear a badge, insignia, emblem, or other similar communicative device relating to a candidate, measure, or political party appearing on the ballot, or to the conduct of the election, in the polling place or within 100 feet of any outside door through which a voter may enter the building in which the polling place is located.

    People are so scared of conflict... don't work the polls if you are scared to have someone follow the rules.

    IMO, they would argue that the BLM is an activist group rather than political, and for many that are ill-informed about the BLM, they might be correct. But as many of us that do know, a very large part of donations and contributions do go to Democratic political funds. I seriously doubt anyone wearing such is voting for Trump.

    Personally, I think they should be not worn.

    Biden shirt at the polls is illegal. BLM, NRA, GOA, probably all legal. I still don't know why I can't carry my concealed handgun at the polls. Even worse, a spammer called me while I was voting, I looked at the judge and shrugged my shoulders.

    My SIL voted the other day and there was a Karen Nazi screaming at people to wear their mask. She said she was being very rude.
