[QUOTE="Arkhandus, post: 3751193, member: 13966"] I figure law enforcement, or the local Church of Heironeous/St. Cuthbert/whatever, would keep folks in line when it comes to that kind of stuff. No enchantments or illusions allowed in politics! :p Clerics and such who are kept loyal to the Church can keep watch for signs of magic use around politicians and voting areas and whatnot, scanning when necessary with Detect Magic and occasionally using a Dispel Magic or Protection from Evil (remember, it suppresses mind control!) to try and keep folks honest. I imagine several high-ranking clerics would be present at voting booths and at speeches by the candidates. A summoned Lantern Archon or the like, for its aura, may also be effective. And it would just more effectively give folks the impression that Heironeous or whoever is watching them at those events, giving them the hairy eye through his patrolling archons. If possible, a high-level wizard may be called on to stand watch by the voting booths or whatnot while surrounded by an Antimagic Field, while the lesser clerics or wizards watch around the perimeter for signs of anyone trying to cast spells (and scanning the crowd with Detect Magic at random intervals or something).
