I could've sworn we already had a similar law, but... I can't find it. Tongue

I would personally prefer this bill to the one Snowguy introduced on behalf of tmth. In fact, I wouldn't mind just repealing the law tmth broke.

It's not a t all clear which law, if any, tmth broke since there wasn't a trial. But do you mean that campaigning for invalidation of votes shouldn't be illegal in itself, but covered under this law if it involves some sort of intimidation or threat?

Yes... Tricking or threatening someone into invalidating their vote should be illegal. And I would probably just leave it at that. Though I can understand why the elections administrator might be held to a different standard, I guess.

I liked the original version better. This seems too vague.

"Intimidation" seems to broad.

Okay, thanks for clearing that up. I won't be objecting the amendment.
