Oklahoma may lift ban on liquor sales on election days. After all, you might need a little liquid courage to make an informed decision,

House Bill Seeks To Change Election Day Liquor Laws

OKLAHOMA CITY -- Should liquor stores be allowed to sell alcohol on election days? It's a question Oklahomans could soon answer at the polls.

The state House recently approved a bill that would put the issue on a statewide ballot. Current law bans liquor sales on all election days until the polls close at 7 p.m.

Oklahoma is one of only seven states with similar bans.

Rep. Kevin Calvey, R-Del City, wrote the bill that would change the law. He said the current ban is a relic from the days of the Wild West, when candidates and their supporters would pack local saloons.

Nothing is as effective as homeopathy.

I'd rather listen to an hour of Abba than an hour of The Beatles.

Pennsylvania is another state where the bars are closed while the polls are open.

Anyone know what the other five are?
