Sotomayor and Breyer dissented.

I would hope this would carry over to other public places - such as schools. For too long anti American slogans were acceptable but pro American ones were banned.

More lawsuits in the future.

It’s campaigning at a polling place! What’s the difference?

Don’t like the wiggle room on “stridently political” apparel.

Either the First Amendment means what is says, or it doesn’t.

[Plaintiff] couldn’t vote in 2010 because he was wearing a T-shirt with the emblem of a local tea party group and had a button asking for poll workers to check his ID.

So RBG and Sotomayor dissented. Can't even ask to check voter ID's. That crosses a clear line regarding inadmissible speech. It resonates of hate.

So basically libs can allow lib shirts and reject conservative ones, they just call the ones they don’t like “stridently political.”

SCROTUS falls way short again.

I remember in the 90s I had an “Impeach Clinton” button and they wouldn’t let me wear it to vote. I explained that this wasn’t a presidential election to no avail. Realizing the poll worker was just trying to do her job I took it off to vote.

The ruling itself can be found HERE. (supremecourt.gov)

I find it's generally worthwhile to read the court's reasoning instead of what you find filtered through the media, which will lie any time it's agenda is threatened.

Wearing campaign-oriented materials is called electioneering and is forbidden in New Jersey polling places. Wearing patriotic gear is not, until a liberal whines about it, because you KNOW who those patriot types vote for...

It is unclear exactly how many states the ruling could affect beyond Minnesota. Both Minnesota and the group challenging the state’s law had said there are about 10 states with laws like Minnesota’s, though they disagreed significantly on which ones, agreeing only on Delaware, New Jersey, New York, Texas and Vermont.

So how and when do we learn if the decision reaches beyond Minnesota?
