Thank you for being a competent poll worker.

In PA the rule is that electioneering has to be 10 feet from the entrance to the polling place. In many places the entrance is considered to be inside the building; they figure it means the entrance to the room where the voting is happening. This allows electioneering folks to set up a gauntlet of signs and of people handing out literature. It is obnoxious and is one more thing the potential voter has to endure.
