Please: You do not need a camcorder, a digital camera will do
Edited on Fri Oct-27-06 04:08 PM by Artiechoke
Since I posted my suggestion that people record their votes via video on October 18th, I've noticed links to sites that encourage individuals to bring their camcorders with them. Unfortunately these digital camcorders tend to be expensive and feel the need to re-post the following info again:

Your digital camera (if you have one) has a video feature that is of enough high quality to to the trick.
To those who don't have one, any camera made in the last 4-5 years will have the feature and some of these cameras can be had for 100 bucks.

They can also be carried in pockets and purses as opposed to the too obvious camcorders. You need to just set it up on auto and video (highest quality setting).
Thanks and please keep this kicked as there is (as you know) early voting going on.

on edit: additional ideas are encouraged!
Cheers

1. Many cellphones also have rudimentary video functions
That is another way to "capture" the vote.

4. Does it have to be moving pictures? Can it be still?

5. sure.
The video function is best in cases where you are voting via electronic screen and your vote flips. If you capture that happening, you could possibly shut down that poll for investigation.
