Can a church be used as a place to vote for the 2008 election?

Question

I know little about politics, and little about religion.
I have a serious question regarding the separation of the two.

Some of you know what I'm talking about, but out in my neighborhood we're having issues with the church next door and their special land uses (which they're not abiding by). Just recently they changed the voting of two precincts to be held at the church.

My question is this:
Is it against the separation of church and state to hold voting for a political position at a place of worship? Would the church not receive funds from the township for holding the voting of the precincts there? If they don't, I believe that would be considered special treatment by the township (government), which is also not exactly legal.

I need help with this. My mother, along with a gajillion neighbors are writing letters to the board of trustees. I can't necessarily do that, since I am not a township taxpayer or a landowner. I am, however, writing a complaint letter to them fo

Answer 1

Separation of church and state, the church must never be used as a voting place because it will influence the election.

Answer 2

churches are polling places here where I live,as well as other nonchurch places. The elections always go off without a hitch and recounts in the past came out exactly the same...in my county. It means freedom of religion, not freedom from religion.
