Ken says:

"'Fraid not.

Draco becomes the master of the Elder wand when he beats 
Dumbledore even though he never touches it thereafter. 
When Harry beats Draco, carrying whatever wand (both of 
them) he becomes the new master of the Elder wand even 
though it was not even present at the confrontation.

At no time does Harry become master of Draco's wand, in 
fact there are several instances in DH of people using 
other people's wands and complaining how they don't seem 
to work so well for them. It is ONLY the Elder wand which 
changes its allegiance from master to master when its 
existing master is bested by a new one.

Monica now:

Hmmm... not quite. In the book Ollivander states upon 
inspection of Draco's wand, "this wand used to belong 
to Draco Malfoy" or something to that effect. So here 
is canon proof that Draco's wand did change allegiance. 
Tadaaa!!!

Monica, who really enjoyed the wand-lore part of the book.
