The boy, 17, who was wearing a shirt bearing an image of Trump extending his middle finger, was part of a group antagonizing ralliers, the woman said.

Nothing helps stop Trump bleeding support from the senior woman demographic quite like a young whippersnapper punching a 70-year-old woman to the ground for her support of Harris.

    It says electioneering is prohibited. It does not elaborate on what that actually means, and whether that covers apparel. Other states do. This one doesn’t. I don’t know why this is so hard for you to comprehend.

    Murder is defined rigorously in laws concerning it. You’re right, they do not specify method, but they do have incredible detail and granularity in what constitutes 1st degree murder vs 2nd degree murder vs 3rd degree murder vs manslaughter (which is distinct from 3rd degree murder, though similar), and go into detail clarifying which is which so that criminals may be prosecuted accordingly.

    There is no such granularity or clarity on the definition of electioneering in the statute as written. This is not up for debate, it just straight up doesn’t bother defining it. It is plainly visible that it just says “x is prohibited”, without actually defining what is and is not considered x, where other states DO. Your inability to comprehend this is not my problem, if you choose to extract meaning from text that is not there, I don’t know how to help you and will not be engaging with you further since you choose not to listen.

    BTW, Its quite ironic your calling someone stupid for lack of reading comprehension

    Lastly, *it’s & *you’re. I could also call you stupid for your grammar, if you prefer.

    Best of luck in life, sport.

      Laws on electioneering can be found state by state here:

      https://www.ncsl.org/elections-and-campaigns/electioneering-prohibitions

      Since this happened in Florida:

      Fla. Stat. § 102.031

      150 ft. of the entrance to a polling place, early voting site, or office of the supervisor

      Campaign materials/signs/banners/literature

      Influencing voters/soliciting votes/political persuasion

      Circulating petitions/soliciting signatures

      polls/exit polls – Note: there is an exception allowing exit polls

      Would not seem to apply to t-shirts or hats, but would apply to signs, banners, etc. within 150 feet.
