The advent of cameraphones makes it pretty easy to sneak a picture of your ballot before you vote. In the old days, they prohibited this kind of thing at the polls, because there was the risk that you'd sell your vote and then use the photo as a kind of receipt to verify what you did. Of course, in New York, you could always click the levers one way, snap a picture, and then vote the other. Who else snapped a picture of their ballot? Put a link in the comments!
