This is already a vote of confidence!
A New Jersey woman tore off her top, waved it like a lasso in defiance and voted in her bra after being told she couldn’t wear a MAGA hat and Trump shirt to the polls.
The white-haired woman was voting early at a fire station in the town of Hamilton, about five miles east of Trenton, on Oct. 26 when a poll worker asked her to remove her Trump hat and grab a jacket from her car to cover her shirt.
Jill Moyer, chairwoman of the Mercer County Board of Elections, tried to tell the woman she would keep her place in line.
“Before I could get everything out, she took off her shirt and threw it around,” Moyer told NJ.com.
The brazen woman threw the bird at the pollsters and yelled, “Suck my c–t,” witnesses said.
“This is why I’m voting for Trump,” she added, according to a since-deleted Reddit post showing the woman wearing silver hoops and a bare bra.
Moyer went to call the police, but the unidentified woman quickly dropped her ballot and left.
Jersey’s campaigning law prohibits any political media that can be “read or viewed to identify support for or opposition to a candidate”.
The post, later shared and deleted by author and Kamala Harris surrogate Mark Green on X, caught the attention of Trump’s running mate, Sen. JD Vance, who shared it.
“What a patriot,” Vance wrote, according to screenshots.
“I’d buy this lady a beer,” one man commented on social media.
Others disagreed.
“Why can’t people just follow the rules and stop disrespecting workers,” one woman said on Facebook.
“I find this ridiculous,” another Jersey woman commented on the election rules. “You stand in line to vote. I don’t think a shirt or a hat will affect who I vote for. I have made a decision.”
Each state has different “campaign” laws, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures, and many voters are unaware of the rules.
Another woman in the Garden State was asked to remove her “The Handmaid’s Tale” costume, a symbol used in reproductive rights protests, before casting her vote, NJ.com reported.
The heated political climate almost led to coups in other parts of the country.
A brawl broke out at a polling station in South Carolina when a man was told he couldn’t vote wearing a hat that read “Let’s Go Brandon,” code for “F–k Joe Biden.”
Shocking video shows the man pointing his finger in the face of one of the workers before she starts punching him.
The South Carolina Department of Law Enforcement is investigating the incident.
South Carolina law prohibits voters from wearing anything that indicates a political party, candidate name or ballot issue.
In New York, however, the law allows clothing or buttons that express political viewpoints, including MAGA messages — as long as they don’t specifically advocate for or against a candidate or ballot proposition, according to officials.
“New York’s anti-choice law was intended to prevent political campaigns from invading polling places,” said Kathleen McGrath of the state Board of Elections. “It is not intended to prohibit political expression in general.”
Marie Ragonese, 72, and her husband Angelo Ragonese, 75, voted early in Whitestone, Queens, wearing pro-Trump gear, but had no problem.
Marie wore a Trump 2024 shirt that featured him moments after he was shot at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.
Her shirt said “Fight, Fight, Fight.”
