Election laws in Illinois prohibit anyone from engaging in “any political discussion within any polling place,” or “within 100 feet of any polling place.”
The first lady was reportedly speaking with other voters and urged them to keep President Obama’s agenda going."

She definitely broke the law and I think that being, a Chicago attorney herself, that she did so out of arrogance and not ignorance. That being said, she did it in Chicago, so I doubt that there will be any action taken - nor will there be any sincere apology forthcoming.
