An anonymous reader writes "Proud voters are already posting their ballots on Instagram but ProPublica's Lois Beckett reports that you may want to check your state laws first since showing your marked ballot to other people is actually illegal in many states."

more government overreach

This is not federal gov't, but States are not much better. Why would you want to allow your State to do that to you, to throw you in jail for a year and fine you thousands of dollars for telling people how you voted? The government is full of dirty pigs and dogs, not people. People OTOH need to learn that all government laws and regulations and taxes are corruption by default.

AFAIC every law is corruption. Government would have to do something extraordinary to prove otherwise to me and even if they did prove a law not to be corruption by default, they would have to prove it to me over and over, maybe every week or every month that it is not corruption, because anything that is passed CAN be corruption even if it is not originally intended or used as such.
