Even if that happened, you shouldn't have to fake a picture to show your boss you voted right, so he gives you a raise.(one possibility)

He wouldn't even have to ask if you noticed all the other people that got raises were the ones that had selfies of their "correct vote".

I don't see this as being any different than the ones who had pro-whoever tweets/fb posts/etc. getting raises.

Either way it's very wrong and should be prosecutable when correlation is way too high to be by chance...

It is a form of political speech, but I believe the need for a secret ballot out weighs that.

I am much more worried about insecure systems than voluntary speech. Forever traumatized by srand+time shuffling in BR voting machine.

My point is that sometimes voluntary speech isn't voluntary.

Agree completely and a working political system needs mitigations for that. Much broader than just ballot selfies.

The biggest-volume class of "voluntary speech that isn't voluntary" is paid advertisements.
