      Which is prohibited in polling locations in Georgia. That is why they were asked to leave. You can wear costumes to vote as long as they don’t constitute electioneering. The definition of electioneering can be fairly broad however. Wearing a black lives matter tshirt, for instance, has been considered electioneering.
