Are Ballot Selfies Legal? From a Washington Post story by Abigail Ohlheiser.

Abigail Ohlheiser, of the Washington Post

So, exactly how many states ban ballot selfies? CNN’s analysis suggests 18, but there are a few tweaks we’d make to their conclusions. CNN lists Massachusetts as a place where ballot selfies are fine -- but the secretary of the commonwealth told CNN that ballot selfies are illegal, even if there’s nothing they can do to enforce the prohibition.    @abbyohlheiser   @washingtonpost  


Take a ballot selfie in Rhode Island and it's fine.
Do it in New Jersey and you're really out of line.
Try it down in Texas and they'll hang you out to dry.
But out in Californy it's as harmless as bonsai.
Rocky Mountain regions do not seem to mind at all.
But Utah and its Mormons hesitate and like to stall.
I send my ballot in by mail, so mostly I don't care --
but ev'ryone who votes today should get the Croix de Guerre!
