UNCONSTITUTIONAL?: The New Hampshire Civil Liberties Union is seeking to block a law prohibiting the sharing of images of marked election ballots over social media.

MANCHESTER, New Hampshire: A New Hampshire law that bans the sharing of images of marked election ballots over social media compromises the right of free political speech in the state, according to a lawsuit filed challenging the prohibition on "ballot selfies." 

The New Hampshire Civil Liberties Union is seeking to block the law, which took effect on Sept 1, prohibiting sharing such images over Twitter, Facebook or any other online or conventional means.
