have one. … Why should it matter to straight couples if gay couples

Bullhorn at the polling place?,

Doesn’t this violate at least the spirit of the “no soliciting votes within 100 feet” rule?

ETA: I know the picture doesn’t get the details across, but the people in the blue tent are campaigning for Erica Gilmore for a District 19 Council seat, and one of the guys in the tent has a bullhorn he’s using to address voters as they enter the church-cum-polling-place across the street. He very clearly asked me and Karsten to “vote for Gilmore” as we were entering the polling place. I don’t know how that law is enforced, but I don’t get the impression that this dude is in full compliance.
