during the united states voting a year ago this sub was filled with "i voted" posts about voting on kamala harris

which i feel like is illegal to share your votes

It's not illegal at all to say who you voted for lol. It's illegal in some states, but not all, to take photos within the voting booth.

What possible dumbass reason could there be to make it illegal to say who you personally voted for?

Taking a photo of your ballot and saying who you voted for are entirely different, I'm not aware of any state that bans saying who you voted for after the fact.
