While a large turn out is expected, the popularity of early voting may cause thinner lines at the polls today. Almost a million people voted early in Maryland.
More info from the Maryland State Board of Elections' web site:
Under Maryland State law, voters can not take pictures or record a video in a voting room. Voters are not allowed to use electronic devices - including phones or tablets - in a voting room.
Once you have cast your ballot, you can't vote again. Voting more than once violates State law.
Maryland is using a paper-based voting system. This means that there is a paper record of every vote cast, and these ballots can be retabulated if needed. The voting equipment is never connected to the Internet. The network used to generate official election results is never connected to the Internet. Physical access to the network is restricted and limited to election officials - all of whom have had a security background check - and all network transactions are logged. More information on the security features and practices for Maryland's voting system is available here.
