In Texas, yes, you can be turned away at the polls if you are wearing a particular candidate's paraphenalia (i.e., buttons, stickers, T-shirts, etc). Before law school, I worked on a city council campaign and work my candidate's t-shirt to a poll. I was asked to cover the shirt up before I was able to cast my vote.
