I am sorry as I am sure this has been talked about, Can we wear our Ron Paul gear when we vote?

it is illegal in my state and you can be arrested.
Not what I heard. Better check. I was going to wear a RP t-shirt.

No they'll make you take it off. A revolution shirt would be ok as it doesn't say Ron Paul. We need to obey they rules set forth.

I worked outside my polling place (100 ft rule) and just put a jacket on when I went in to vote.

There is a law in many states about no campaign materials within x number of feet from the ballot boxes. If you wear a shirt, you will be violating that law most likely, assuming you have one in your state.
Besides, I wouldn't wear it while voting anyway - it gives them the ability to know who you voted for and toss out your ballot!
My friend in TN got an email telling him not to wear Ron Paul stuff inside the voting place.

No T-Shirts, Hats, Button, and no campaigning inside the polling place.
A miniaturized directed acoustic device (http://www.atcsd.com/site/) might fly below radar, though.:D

i just read the NJ Division of Elections website from head to toe and looked everywhere and nowhere did I read that I could NOT wear campaign clothes... I am wearing a Ron Paul shirt tomorrow.
