I took a pic of my final ballot because I am old and can never remember who I voted for. I saw no signs that said I couldn't take pics but of course I am old and can't see either.
You are a hoot tonight!

Last year when I voted I pulled out my cell phone to review my notes about some of the more obscure races, and was told by the lurking election official that the use of electronic devices in the voting room wasn't allowed. (That was during early voting in the governmental center in L'town, not in the regional polling places like the schools.) This is backed up by the Maryland code:

Just my opinion but those touch screens need to be configured before they are used and this is usually done by touching a series of squares when the machine is fist powered on. If the person that configured it rushed through the process they may have created the issue. If you tell one of the people in charge they should either reconfigure it or take it off the floor.Well, I guess you could make the case that, since most of the incumbents are Democrats and would therefore be first on the list followed by the Republican challenger, the misalignment was intentional. Don't know, I'm just relaying my experience and what I think the problem was. They should have had a stylus instead of having to use your finger.
