Original Note:
It is not illegal in Florida to give people food and water while they wait in line to vote. It is illegal to solicit voters within 150 feet of a voting site. Unless food and water is being handed out in an effort to solicit voters, it is completely legal to do so. http://www.leg.state.fl.us/Statutes/index.cfm?App_mode=Display_Statute&Search_String=&URL=0100-0199/0102/Sections/0102.031.html https://www.voteindianriver.com/Polling-Places/No-Solicitation-Zone https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/elections/florida-strips-language-bill-effectively-banning-voters-being-given-food-n1263568
