Can I photograph strangers voting at a polling station?
<p>Can a photo of strangers voting in a polling station be taken and put on
Facebook if their ballot is not showing how they voted.  Specifically in
Texas ?</p>

<p>According to <a href="http://www.statutes.legis.state.tx.us/Docs/EL/htm/EL.61.htm#A" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Texas law</a>, Election code 61.014(b):</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>A person may not use any mechanical or electronic means of recording images or sound within 100 feet of a voting station.</p>
</blockquote>

<p>However, the punishment appears to be only this:</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>The presiding judge may require a person who violates this section to turn off the device or to leave the polling place.</p>
