Voters use of cell phones
 

Elimination of "cellphones" -- as distinct from cameras and recording devices--in 1VAC20-60-30, Section B effectively eliminates cell phones as one of the devices to be monitored by the election officers or covered for voters by this regulation.  Was this your intention?  If so, what steps can be taken by an election officer when a voter is holding up the check-in line by engaging in a distracting phone conversation simultaneously with check-in?  Could the voter be asked to step aside until their call is completed?
