The Polling Place Photo Project is one of many sites where people are documenting their voting experiences. People snap a quick picture from their polling station and upload it, along with the type of ballot featured, the quality of service they received and some other basic information. Not just for negative experiences, either – nearly all are positive. So, is it legal to take pictures inside the polls? newassignment.net, which pointed us to the photo project, says the matter’s unclear. There’s no federal law, and there are some state-by-state guides that only partially clarify the issue.
