If the most powerful man in the world follows rules and expresses his patriotism by wearing a mask (or as some call it 'Face d-word') when not able to socially distance, why would any regular Americans refuse to follow in their patriotic President's footsteps?

Maryland Voter Arrested After Refusing To Wear Mask At Polling Location In Harford County, Police Say

JARRETTSVILLE, MD. (WJZ) — A Maryland man was arrested Monday for trespassing after he refused to wear a mask at a polling place in Harford County, the sheriff’s office says.

Deputies were called to the Jarrettsville Volunteer Fire Company, an early voting location, at around 2:46 p.m. They were told two people inside the polling area were refusing to wear a mask, so election officials asked them to leave.
But they refused and now were considered trespassers, the sheriff’s office said. Election judges are allowed to remove a person from a polling place.



The Harford County Board of Elections has a designated area for voters who were unable or unwilling to wear a mask while voting. Daniel Swain, a 52-year-old man from Fallston, and another man refused to wear a mask and also refused to use the designated area.

They had a dedicated area for those who don't wear masks. If he had used it, he would not have been arrested. I don't think that is too much of an inconvenience. It's his own fault he got arrested.

I don't wear the mask and my state does not require them to vote.

Because "regular Americans" blaze their own path and follow no one.

Maybe the line was longer?

Sounds like they wanted to get arrested. A protest action. At least they weren’t blocking a roadway to get arrested.

They can take it to court, but they would have a better case getting fined in public with no mask. I’m gonna guess that trespassing and polling places are special cases that they won’t win in court.

Voted maskless last week and no one said a word. Thank God Wilkes County still has a little liberty. Dan Forrest 2020
