I'm surprised they set up the machines that close together. And I'm surprised they allow photography in polling places - it's against the law in PA and while working at a polling location I had to stop 3 people from taking selfies at the voting machine or yakking on their phones. There's a 11x17 sign right as you enter that says no cell phones or photography, but some people can't read.
 
That Drumpf picture is pretty damn funny. Gets me every time. Making sure his wife is voting for him lol.
At the place where I voted we had plenty of privacy.

These are more staged news story photos. Nobody else is shown voting.
 
^^I meant the peeking and camera stuff.
My booths have varied depending on where I've lived. One was spaced far apart but back to back, another that I can't remember well but I do remember a curtain, my current one is similar to the pictures but much higher. The ballot is chest height and the wall is higher.

Except theres no reason why Trump and Trump Jr. should have been posing for pictures by looking at their wives ballots.
 
Guess different rules for different states. We had a local polling place supervisor get canned a few years ago when he let a local TV station film a congressperson voting at the machine (couldn't see the screen, but still). They still bring it up at the biannual training sessions for polling place supervisors.

I think in NY, they don't allow off the cuff photography, but pre-arranged things can be done and only under the supervision of polling officials.
