This is a good question…
Does anyone have a picture of the poster that was distributed to polling places by the Allegheny County Board of Elections proscribing any photography inside the polling place? ...I’ve looked around online but haven’t found any ordinance or mention in the home rule charter or any other instructions at the state level proscribing photography inside the polling place. “Am I missing something?”:http://progresspittsburgh.net/?p=458

Perhaps an answer
From my days as a judge of elections, I know that no partisan activity may take place inside a poll nor anything that could be perceived as voter intimidation. I would think that taking pictures inside a poll (or even outside) could be construed as intimidating voters. If someone had brought a camera and decided to take pictures inside my poll, I probably would not have looked favorably on that.
