I’m not so sure she broke a law. There was obviously no criminal intent. Clearly, she was not intending to commit fraud. After all, she wrote the word “VOID” on the dog’s ballot. She was merely making the point that vote fraud is an easy crime to commit. She has done a great service. the only problem is the election office and the legislature looks pretty stupid that such fraud is so easy to commit.

You did notice that she was not charged with vote fraud, didn’t you?

Sure, she was charge with making a false statement, which very easily could have been pursued as a felony.

All I’m saying is that she crossed a line into an unknown which could have gotten her into serious trouble.

I’m not questioning her motive but it would be a shame if she was saddled with the burden of having to explain a criminal conviction for the rest of her life because of an act of protest.

Yea, I was about to say the same thing. Exactly what law did she break? What lie did she tell?

As far as I can tell, she told no lie to some public official. The public officials were too stupid to read what she submitted on the form.
