Goofy Snapchat Lens Morphs Users Into Hillary Clinton
SAN FRANCISCO (CBS SF) -- Voters can not only vote for Hillary Clinton they can be Hillary Clinton, thanks to a Snapchat filter.
A Democratic super PAC paid Snapchat to roll out a political lens that lets users take selfies and then dress them up with Clinton's signature blond hairdo and a pantsuit.
The mobile app even throws in her signature "shimmie" during the 8-second animation along with her voice saying, "Whew, OK."

There's also a geofilter users can layer over videos and photos that says, "I'm with her." A similar one will be available to users who want to show their support for Trump on Tuesday.
The pricey filters sell on a first-come-first-served basis for upwards of $700,000 apiece. Apparently Clinton's camp got to Snapchat before Trump's did.
