GOP Consultant Sentenced in Phone Jamming

It seems like he got off lightly. This guy was stopping people voting.



I agree that's a bit light. They fined him the exact amount for which he was paid to get Repubs to vote. That's not really a fine, but just taking back his profit. To really hurt him would have not only taken his profit, but also hit him financially beyond that.

All I can figure is that since his crime was tying up phone lines used by Democrats to call for a ride to the polling place, that the number of voters actually prevented from voting by this scheme, must have been very low.

If he prevented just one person it was too many. Didn't the Dem's that slashed tires get a heavier fine/pushiment?

Good riddance. It seems like he got off lightly. This guy was stopping people voting. This should be taken very seriously in any democracy.

Ya, good thing for him it's only the US.

He could also just be noting that we aren't a democracy but a (democracy-based representative republic yada yada yada).

What I mean is it just could be a harmless tongue in cheek comment despite some history to the otherwise. E52 has shown a fun side too.

Yea that's old, I thought as I typed Democracy that that some nit-picking fool might take issue with it as they do half the time but I decided not to even bother.

In this case it's just the predictable senseless bash.
