Chloe Dupuy: Don't even THINK about taking a selfie when you vote in these states

Don't even THINK about taking a selfie when you vote in these states

This article is about selfies while voting. In some places, taking pictures is not allowed at all while going through the voting process. There are also some states who just don't allow selfies. Taking a selfie in certain states like California, Florida, and Texas is against the law and could get you in serious trouble if caught doing so. Not even celebrities or high class officials are allowed to have even a camera showing while placing a ballot.

This article was written by AJ Willingham for CNN News. Based on the word choice used, he thinks the rule is silly but is still supporting it because it's the law. This article was written towards the end of the presidential elections which means that many readers would view it. It was written for viewers who could be potential voters in order to protect them and inform them about the law in certain states.  It is significant because it could play a major role in helping voters abide by the law and not get in trouble. This could be related to how wjen things are first created, like the hover board, they are not permitted in public places for fear of interference.
