Sticker was roughly the size of a silver dollar. I've seen people vote with t shirts and hats on supporting candidates. Is this a Louisiana law or voter intimidation?

I still voted to MAGA.

That's the law. No electioneering within 600 feet of the polling place.

Some places are very strict regarding campaigning within the required distance from the polling places. They consider even wearing a sticker as campaigning

My neighbor was told to turn his Trumo shirt inside out. He complied, and pulled the lever. 600 ft from election site is the law in Louisiana.

It's the law dude.

Not saying it is totally enforced at every polling place but those are the rules.

Now if your shirt says "Nasty Woman" or something less obvious you might get away with that.

Am I the only person that finds it incredibly weird that adults would wear stickers with a politician's name on them?

Yep. It's 100ft here in Kentucky. But it doesn't apply to bumper stickers (since most folks park within 100ft) or private property.

I don't have an issue with it. It's meant to prevent voter intimidation and harassment at the polls. And we all know people would do both if given the opportunity.

This makes sense.

The guy in 2012 being told he couldn't vote unless he removed his USMC ball cap was total BS.
