Hm.. at Eight, there was no such restriction (of course, this was at the mailroom, not the polling place, so it's probably okay)...
OTOH, there was "[X] for City Council" in chalk suspiciously close to the polling place... do federal restrictions on campaigning within a certain proximity to the polls apply to local elections, too?
Looks like I'm not the only one who did a double-take when I saw that one!
(And no, I don't think Fish Rap Live! is an "official" UCSC newspaper... and for that matter, the article goes on to say that this is just wishful thinking, but it still gave me the creeps when I noticed it in the mailroom a few hours ago...)
