Exercise your right to vote!
I want an Obama shirt. But I'm having some trouble choosing the design I like best. That's where you come in. Here are the choices:

Choice number 1.
Choice number 2.
Choice number 3.
Choice number 4 (says "yes we can" in Hebrew).
Choice number 5 (says Obama in Hebrew).
Choice number 6.


Poll #1276533
Open to: All, detailed results viewable to: All, participants: 6

Which Obama is the right Obama for me?

Whichever one you pick, mind you don't wear it to the polls.

Because some states consider wearing candidate shirts, pins, etc electioneering. It's not a huge deal. I wasn't planning on wearing it to the polls but if I did, I'd just throw a jacket on over it or whatever.

But I did just google Maryland electioneering rules and apparently, "A voter may wear campaign paraphernalia (buttons, t-shirts, or stickers) into the
polling place while he or she is there to vote (the voter may not linger in the polling place
after voting). However, an election judge, challenger and watcher, or other person
stationed inside the polling place or within 100 feet of the polling place may not wear or
display campaign materials."

A lot of states have laws barring any political statement from being displayed within 50 feet of a polling place. There have been times where people were asked to either leave or cover up their political-minded clothing, and (maybe I'm just paranoid because I live in a red state) but this is not a year we can afford voter disenfranchisement in.

I like number 5 also, but I fear not enough people would get it.

Yeah, I think you're right. I just liked the colors against the black. But I do like number 4 a lot and I think it's obvious enough that people would get it.
