I also have an election ? too RE: lobbying

Isn't there some kind of law against lobbying a certain # of feet from an election center? Outside of the school where we voted there were 2 people handing out fliers for a few candidates. Not for president, I don't remember what they were running for exactly because I was angry and ignored them. Did you guys see anything like that where you voted?

There were signs that said 'NO CAMPAIGNING OF ANY KIND BEYOND THIS POINT' right by the parking lot heading towards the school.

Same here...it IS illegal for anyone to 'electioneer' within a certain distance of the polling place. If not I would have brought my 7-11 Obama cup in with me
