Poll workers in Boca Raton, Florida, tried to bar a woman from
voting in the Nov. 6 election because she was wearing a
Massachusetts Institute of Technology T-shirt. Officials
apparently believed MIT was the Republican presidential candidate.
Local media report they eventually figured out what it does stand
for. Meanwhile, a poll worker in Denver called a supervisor

when she spotted a voter wearing an MIT sweatshirt. The
supervisor assured her that voter was not violating a state law
against electioneering near a polling place.
