I suppose next time they'll pass a law that says no free flu shots before
the 2nd week of November.

The Democrats do stupid things at the polls also. I just hate all the
bullshit justification coming from both sides regarding an election.  In
Detroit it happens to be cries of racism when a Republican challenger
inquires why no one is checking IDs at the polling location.

    Its the law.  Giving somebody booze,
cigarettes, money, gold,
or a flu
shot is paying for somebody to vote and violated a very specific statute
applicable to that region.

Its also bullshit they were trying to reach medically undeserved areas.
They were trying to pay people to come vote.

"Mayor Bill White ordered a halt Wednesday to the city health department's
privately funded drive to offer flu vaccinations at early voting sites in
predominantly Hispanic and black neighborhoods, amid conservative criticism
that the effort would boost Democratic turnout.

About 1,300 flu shots were given to people age 50 or older in the past three
days under the program, which didn't require the recipients to vote. Health
officials said they were only trying to reach people in medically
underserved communities."
