Hawaii just passed a law that makes it legal to share your ballot selfies, so that map is correct for Hawaii at least. Before that you just couldn't share a picture of a primary or special primary quote:§11-137 Secrecy; removal or exhibition of ballot. No person shall look at or ask to see the contents of the ballot or the choice of party or nonpartisan ballot of any voter, except as provided in section 11-139 and 11-132, nor shall any person within the polling place attempt to influence a voter in regard to whom the voter shall vote for. When a voter is in the voting booth for the purpose of voting, no other person, except as provided in section 11-139 and 11-132, shall be allowed to enter the booth or to be in a position from which the person can observe how the voter votes.

No other race had anything like that. Also, it was the first time that judicial races were partisan, before it was all unaffiliated.

Crain posted:poo poo about conservative WV relatives. This is heartbreaking as gently caress, especially since as someone who grew up in a rural WV community, I know too many people who could probably change a dozen words at most of this and have it apply to a portion of their family. My dad, his two brothers, his father, both of my mom's brother's, and her father all worked in the mines. All but my father were deeply conservative, and all except my mom's youngest brother died before hitting 60, and his health isn't expected to hold out for more than 3-4 years at best. Three of my cousins my age or younger are already working in the mines, and I know two of them have already struggled with drug addictions. As I child I heard one of my uncles claim once that if the liberals had their way they'd shut down the coal mines. I remember praying every night for that to happen.

Cigar Aficionado posted:http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2016/10/24/inside-donald-trump-s-one-stop-parties-attendees-recall-cocaine-and-very-young-models.html Well Trump has a court date set for a civil suit with a woman alleging she was raped by Trump when she was 13. The things she says seem to dovetail with this Daily Beast reporting. http://www.snopes.com/2016/06/23/donald-trump-rape-lawsuit/ I know you can't trust any of this stuff right now without real journalists chasing this down, but ugh... nobody believed the woman who came forward in July and people downplayed the Ivana rape accusation and then now we have Trump talking to Billy Bush then more women coming forward then we also have to take into consideration Trump's longtime friendship with Jeffrey Epstein and the New York Magazine profile of Epstein where Trump says he knows Epstein is into girls "on the younger side" and the comments about 10-12 year olds in public and ahhhhh this election is getting real real dark.

Stereotype posted:People keep hand wringing about Democrats not voting since Hillary has it in the bag, but there are enough Red states that might go Blue where Democrats who normally wouldn't care are going to be SUPER EXCITED since they might win for once in their lives. I've had friends in Georgia posting and hyping the gently caress out of HOLY poo poo GEORGIA MIGHT GO BLUE VOTE YOU FUCKERS ever since Trump picked a fight with the Khans and that first close poll came out. Warcabbit posted:http://www.motherjones.com/kevin-drum/2016/10/obamacare-premiums-will-increase-about-25-year At a glance I can't help but notice a fair number of places with increased premiums (like Pittsburgh and Philly) are also losing providers. So less options and increased cost with those who remain. OhFunny posted:http://www.nytimes.com/2016/10/25/us/national-guard-bonuses-california.html?_r=0 I've been reading about it elsewhere and it's royally hosed up. The Feds know it is too. Someone started a class action lawsuit in California and the government immediately forgave his outstanding debt and are asking for the class action to be dismissed. since that specific person no longer has reason to sue. Another person was being told to repay because the government couldn't find its copy of their signing papers with the bonus. Honestly, reading about it is a good way to ruin your day because it's just so insanely hosed up. It'd be nice to have Clinton call attention to it and state that she's going to do everything in her power to stop it and just have the government eat the cost instead of loving up the lives of thousands of vets.

If you can prove you voted a certain way to someone, they can reward you, so it enables the reliable buying of votes. Without it, people can still try to buy off voters, but you can't really be coerced into voting a certain way. You can vote however you want and just lie about it.

Yeah nobody cares about some dumb millennial tweeting a selfie of them voting for Jill Stein. They care about 1) people paying others to vote and 2) people coercing others to vote, whether employees or family members or whoever. The secret ballot means secret, you always have to have plausible deniability to tell your friends/family/coworkers "Yeah I totally voted for Trump/Clinton" while secretly doing the opposite, and the fewer ways there are for them to pressure you into revealing your real vote the better.
