If you’re on social media, there's a good chance that some of your friends will post -- or try to post -- a photo of themselves voting. Or maybe you will.
But in some states, it could warrant a jail sentence. In others, like New York, there’s no law against it.
Florida law, for example, prohibits photography in the polling place and poll clerks will remind voters if they see them taking a picture, said Bill Cowles, supervisor of elections for Orange County.
Cowles said Orange County poll clerks have been trained to be on the look-out for voters snapping photos and will remind them not to do it again.

University of Central Florida student Ashlee Holloway waited until she was out of the voting booth and away from the polling site before she took a selfie with her "I Voted" sticker.
"I just wanted to prove to my mom that I voted. She was on me today like, 'Get up and vote,'" said Holloway.
Holloway said she didn't think it would be appropriate to take a photo while voting.
"It just seems like it's very roped off and it's very serious for a reason," said Central Florida student Joanna Gill.
News cameras are not allowed inside polling locations.
In New Hampshire, a law banning “ballot selfies” is being challenged by a lawsuit alleging that it compromises the right of free political speech in the state, according to Reuters.
#VoterSelfies have been big on social media on Election Day, but for now, be mindful that they’re not allowed inside a voting area in Florida. It could get you in trouble.
