You might recall that in Illinois, it is illegal to “electioneer” inside a polling place. You might recall that this issue came up recently when Michelle Obama, a Harvard Law School graduate and the daughter of a Chicago Democratic Machine precinct captain, discussed with voters inside a polling place why it was important to support Democrats this cycle. Naturally, the Robert Gibbs and the White House didn’t take that seriously.
Well, at an early voting rally in Chicago, Rep. Jan Schakowsky, whose husband is a felon, did the same thing. Watch the video:
