   U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - Minneapolis   
   [PUBLISHED] [Benton, Author, with Gruender and Shepherd, Circuit Judges]
Civil case - Election Laws. Claim that Minn. Stat. Sec. 211B.11, subd. 1, banning the wearing of any political insignia to a polling place, was facially invalid under the First Amendment is rejected, as the law is viewpoint neutral and served a legitimate state interest in assuring the peace, order and decorum of the polling place; plaintiff failed to allege that Minnesota causes selective enforcement of the facially neutral statute and policy and therefore failed to state an equal protection claim. Judge Shepherd, concurring in part and dissenting in part.
