A photo showing a smiling former death row inmate with a #VOTED sticker on his forehead has captured the social media spotlight. Anthony Hinton spent 28 years on Alabama’s death row before his release in 2015. The group that helped free him, Equal Justice Initiative, tweeted the picture with the message, “For 30 years, Mr. Hinton was stripped of all his rights while he sat on Alabama death row for a crime he didn’t commit. Today, he arrived at the polls at 7am and exercised his right to vote.” The post has been retweeted and liked thousands of times.
