Finally, I have found a use for my cellphone camera
That silly little not-so-very-good quality camera that is on my cell phone? I'm taking it with me when I vote. I'm sticking it in my pocket.

If people are campaigning too close to the polls, click.
If my voting screen looks wrong, click.
If someone at the polling place gives me wrong information, click.
Anything irregular? CLICK.

Evidence.


Everyone should do this.

Sincerely,
Florida Voter

1. Be careful.
Cameras at the polls can be construed as voter intimidation. There may be laws about it in your area.

You need to make sure you still have that phone in your hand when you face your crooked voting machine.

3. It might be beneficial for everyone here to have a number to call
in the event of voter issues - the call should be made immediately not hours later.

6. I'll be packing a 5 megapixel Canon full-on camera
In California it is illegal only to photograph people entering or leaving the polls.
