North Carolina Voter Sues Over Ballot Selfie Ban

Lawsuit challenges state law prohibiting photography of completed ballots, citing First Amendment rights.

Susan Hogarth filed a lawsuit against North Carolina's State Board of Elections after being threatened with prosecution for posting a ballot selfie.
The lawsuit argues that the state's ban on ballot photography violates the First Amendment's protection of free speech.
North Carolina's law aims to prevent vote-buying schemes by prohibiting photos of completed ballots.
The Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression supports Hogarth's case, seeking to block the law's enforcement before the November election.
Similar laws have been struck down in other states, while some have legalized ballot selfies.
