Anecdote About Voting

I was at a political fundraising locally and we were talking about mail in ballots. There was a lady who ran for county clerk in the last election and we were talking. We have a local fundamentalist church that runs people in every election where I live. It appears that this large fundy church has voting conclaves where everyone brings their ballot to church and everyone fills out their ballot together to make sure they all vote the same way. I wonder how much this happens in the rest of the country?.

Nobody is going to tell me how to vote.

But you did say "fundy" church. Those people don't have a mind of their own.

with those voting conclaves. Any way you could get the local or state election commission to look into that?
