redirect_to != return

Question

I\'m looking for some clarification regarding the behaviour of redirect_to.

I have this code:

if some_condition
   redirect_to(path_one)

It's worth noting there is no need to return unless you have any code after redirect_to, as in this example:

def show
  if can?(:show, :poll)
    redirect_to registrar_poll_url and return
  elsif can?(:show, Invoice)
    redirect_to registrar_invoices_url and return
  end
end
