[QUOTE="Glocktogo, post: 1999082, member: 1132"] I think a few questions are in order here: It was private property, voluntarily offered for a public function without remuneration. So, what category does that make it based on the use as intended by Sisson? Private or public? If someone is otherwise following all state laws, can a private property owner refuse service to someone exercising their legal right to vote? If so, is the county election board required to provide him with an alternate polling location? Who denied him entry? The property owner or manager, or an election volunteer? It seems to me that an election volunteer would not have the authority to invoke trespass on property where they did not have a legally binding contract for the use of the facility. Is there a contract in effect? Even if it was the property manager or owner, could they bar that person from exercising their right to vote? I refer back to the previous paragraph. Is a polling location the same as a government meeting location? I doubt it was intended that way when the law was written, but who knows what the courts say? What we have here is a collision of private property rights, CCW rights and voting rights. All I can see for certain is that the guy is a dolt for pressing the issue. A polling place is not the best place to state your case for open carry. It's a place to vote, period. Why muddy the waters? :( [/QUOTE]
