So I went and voted tonight at a church down the road (Ramsey County, btw).  They had a paper sign up saying firearms, some other stuff I don't remember, and campaign material were prohibited.  They cited statute 211B.11.  Went home and looked that up and there was absolutely nothing in there with regard to firearms.  Entire 211B as far as I could tell.  It's pretty stupid but I was kind of ticked off about it.  Did anyone else notice it?  I'm generally not one to take up causes but how would one effectively challenge the election board and get them to stop posting erroneous signs?

eta: I didn't take my phone with me so I couldn't get a picture of it.  Come to think of it, that might have been one of the items that was also prohibited.

And if you carry and nobody knows, does anyone care?

Out of sight is out of mind...

It is technically a felony, just like post office and school carry.  So is voter fraud and that has never stopped people either...

I know many who also carry at church.
I was asking why it would be a felony to carry at one

Carry at a polling place. His polling place happens to be at a church, which is irrelevant to weather or not it is legal to carry at a polling place.

Yes, exactly.  If your polling place was a gun store or a shooting range, it would be technically illegal to carry there during polling hours.

I don't see anything in MN statutes that would ban firearms from a polling place (other than if you're polling place is in a school) and it's not llegal under federal law. I may have missed it though so could you site the relevent statute please?
