The House allows iPads on the floor, and reporters are allowed to bring laptops into the gallery. It's how we get our live votes transcribed! https://www.nytimes.com/2017/05/08/insider/how-we-beat-the-h...

Interesting quite different to the HOC where the result of a division (vote) is read out quite soon after.

I have worked at large 500+ delegate conferences using parliamentary procedures and now they often use electronic systems for both teller and card votes which is much faster
