FWIW: Using a cell phone to take video in polling places in most states is prohibited, and in general "frowned upon" in others. I would not be surprised if he simply took a video as quickly as he could and then left. I agree it would have been a more believable incident if there was more video.

Based on the reddit story, I think this was Central PA, which definitely falls into the "not allowed to take video" category.
