but just asked my sister who is heading to the polls right now to find out if it's legal to photograph yourself with your filled in ballot in NY. I suspect a lot of people are going to want to to that today.

New York: Don't take a picture of your ballot. Simple.

A selfie without the ballot seems to be ok, though.

I've heard about this in more than one state. I don't see the logic.

It's to prevent the buying/selling of votes. Without a picture how would the buyer know who the seller actually voted for? Would you take the word of someone who was willing to sell his vote.

And the abuser demands proof? Best to keep ballots sacred, IMO.

I would have liked to have that momento. Thanks for the info.

It's optical scan so just tables with dividers. I sincerely do miss our huge, clunky lever machines with the curtains. That satisfying sound when you open the curtain and feel your vote has been counted. Sigh.

was packed like I've never seen after work, and that was in late morning.

pretty impressive. They do it old school, with aggressive GOTV efforts of the kind that have kind of fallen out of fashion lately.

Not too worried about the Philly results.

From my time working the polls, I know there will Dem party officials around to each poll every few hours to record a count of Ds and Rs that have voted. They don't look at any names, just ask the election board for a breakdown of Ds and Rs.

Brady is predicting a 460k+ lead out of the city.

Not sure if it's legal or not, but I wanted a copy for posterity.

I voted this morning in Florida and as people were walking in to vote, we were all asked if we had a cell phone on us. They were "held" until you voted and was leaving the polling place. Wish I could have taken a picture of my ballot. A great momento for history.

Feels good doesn't it?

All Hillary in the City of Brotherly Love and Sisterly Affection!

Up early working to take people to the polls. Excited.

Mrs GoS was #552!

This is Division 17.

Long lines all over the neighborhood.

Longer than 2008 and 2012.

I don't think that there were even a dozen people in line. It was around 11:30, hopefully that was the reason and people will come out after work.

I work in Norristown and yeah, the morning rush was alot bigger than I've seen before and it's settled down to what it normally is (no wait).

There are two polling places there. The auditorium is 1-3. The hallway behind behind the auditorium is 1-2.

off of Colonial Ave.

Voting is easy for me.

I'm not a native Spanish speaker, so I'm no sure whether Spanish has fixed genders for titles or whether they are fluid depending upon the gender of the title holder.

Thus, would it be El Presidente Hillary Clinton or La Presidenta Hillary Clinton?
