Documenting your vote: more important in light of problems in Virginia Beach

written by Paul A. Prados November 4, 2014

As pointed out by Steve Albertson, the Rigell campaign is facing problems with touch screen voting in Virginia Beach.

As I indicated last week, taking pictures of your official ballot is likely regarded as a misdemeanor in most jurisdictions in Virginia.[read_more]

Although I am firmly in the camp that believes that the Virginia Beach touchscreen problem is due to a calibration error and not a liberal plot, this would be nothing more than an unsubstantiated rumor if a voter had not (supposedly illegally) filmed him or herself utilizing the touchscreen.

Virginia law does not prohibit photography in the polling place, but does prohibit making copies of an official ballot.  Here in Fairfax, election authorities have continued the absolute prohibition on use of electronic devices capable of taking pictures for election 2014.

Perhaps one of the victims of voting machines in Virginia Beach will become the prosecutorial test case, or maybe we can get rid of laws that hinder documenting your vote…

Paul A. Prados

Having fallen prey to the allure of DC politics in college, Paul escaped only to make the similar judgment error of going to law school. Trained at the side of a sitting state Senator, Paul is now the owner of a law firm in Reston, Virginia. In previous years Paul built a base of support on Twitter @ppradoslaw and founded and wrote for a blog on Virginia politics and legal procedure northernvirginialawyer.blogspot.com. As a pro-life libertarian, Paul finds himself at home within the broader conservative movement, and believes in a big tent Republican Party. In May 2016 Paul was elected as Chairman of the 11th Congressional District Republican Committee. Paul resides in western Fairfax County with his wife and children.
