In Michigan if you complete your ballot while not in a booth election workers are required to void the ballot and offer you a new one. I saw this happen when a woman sat down in the corner of the room and started marking her ballot. She looked like she probably was on her way back to work, but they took her ballot and issued her a new one and made her wait in line.
