Can I take a ballot selfie in Delaware?
Yes, however, there are some rules and suggestions to be mindful of.
There is no law prohibiting voters from taking ballot selfies in Delaware.
You cannot talk on the phone while at the polling place as the state says the noise could interfere with poll workers and distract other voters.
