"[E]ight years is a tad much for a nonviolent crime, committed by a woman who is plausibly stupid enough to not realize she was committing eight felonies."
Now, I hear what you're saying, but what my theory presupposes is:
Maybe that isn't exculpating in this context?
It isn't in MY opinion, therefore reduction of sentence denied.
It's a familiar story: entitled white woman thinks laws and rules are for keeping other, lesser people in line. Is shocked to learn they might apply to her, also.
You are kinder than I, Robyn. I figure she, like the rest of them that pull this stunt, know precisely what they are doing. Especially since she ran a campaign about Voter Integrity. Even 18 year olds know you can only vote where you actually live.
Personally, for subverting an election, I feel 8 years is too light. But I am rather mean.
She SHOULD get eight years if that is all that she can get. Should be eighty. Or eight hundred. Hey, let's emulate Texas and ask for the death penalty.
"Even if it does, they insist, it’s worth it to prevent the rampant voter fraud they’ve never been able to prove actually exists." That sounds a lot like Charlie Kirk and gun rights. Oh, the irony.
I wish you were making this up, but of course you’re not.
She’s not plausibly THAT stupid. 8 years is a bit silly…but they’re the hardliners on this.
ignorance of the law etc. yes eight years seems harsh I would favor some other non-carceral form of consequences, not sure what
There's a saying about this very thing. Oh yeah:
IGNORANCE OF THE LAW IS NO DEFENSE (ignorantia juris non excusat).

FAFO

I asked it if it's legal to use taxpayer funds on partisan campaign ads and it went down. 😦
You would make a fabulous Princess of Monaco, Robyn. Simply fabulous.
This nimrod actually thought the Costanza Defense would work in a real courtroom.
"Even if it does, they insist, it’s worth it to prevent the rampant voter fraud they’ve never been able to prove actually exists." That sounds a lot like Charlie Kirk and gun rights. Oh, the irony.
I think she simply doesn't have external ears, which is why she ended up with that ring where it is.
I would totally vote for you for Princess of Monaco!
I would totally vote for for Princess of Monaco!
I've been told that if you want to be a Princess of Monaco that a good start is to grow up in Philadelphia as the daughter of a bricklayer.
