Chicken Suits Banned at Nevada Polls

Voters dressed in chicken costumes will not be allowed inside Nevada polling places this year, the AP reports.

State election officials added chicken suits to the list of banned items after weeks of ridicule directed at Sue Lowden (R).

"The millionaire casino executive and former beauty queen recently suggested that people barter with doctors for medical care, like when 'our grandparents would bring a chicken to the doctor.'"

2. I don't think it looks good for Lowden if they had to ban chicken suits at the polls.

:rofl:

7. Oh, she has tanked in the polls

Bad news is, it looks like Angle is gaining the upper hand-got the teabagger endorsement. No matter we're fucked with either of them. Hoping Reid can pull it out.

[Webster Green]

9. Me too.

I'm not his biggest fan, but he sure is better than the chicken lady or any teabagger. I guess they're both teabaggers anyway.

11. Yes, he is far better than any of the Republicans opposing him

And, for all his considerable faults, he is better than most of the Blue Dog senators.

12. Clucking Is Probably Not Acceptable Either

chicken eggs perhaps?

5. That's not fair - what if youjust happened to wear your chicken suit that day,

just like you might have on any other day? Should you be denied a fundamental right for a simple sartorial misstep? Fascism...

:)

[laughingliberal]

8. Lol...

There is a guy in town who works for a business where he wears a chicken suit and holds a sign every day in front of the business. I think he should sue for violation of his voting rights.

[petronius]

13. There you go - it's a clear attempt the suppress the vote of the

working class... :)

[JBoy]

6. Isn't this a first amendment violation?

And what defines a "costume"?

- how about a chicken body but not a chicken head?
- how about just a chicken hat?
- how about just chicken feet?
- how about wearing a big KFC bucket held up by suspenders?
- how about wearing a sign saying "I'm a chicken"?

10. Teabaggers take revenge by choking a Chicken.

The smell of hand lotion is overpowering.

15. It probably falls under electioneering. n/t

16. What is it with these "former beauty queens"?

Remember, Lady Blah Blah herself was a state runner-up. :eyes:

17. It's the GOP meme.

It's sort of like the female version of what Poppy did with Uncle Thomas.

Hey, it sells cars.

Former beauty queen and soon to be Homeowners Association President.
