Cant get away with that here, its considered a misdemeanor. Though I think it would help voter turnout in a lot of areas if theyd allow it.
Some coworkers that live in Charlevoix were talking about how there was so much traffic backed up at the polls that police had to be out to direct it. One good thing about where I live, there is no real town, they just set the fire station up for voting and I just stopped on the way home, pulled into a parking spot, walked in and voted.
