Fears grow that loyalists in key states could use critical period when votes are counted to amplify false claims
Election experts have warned Donald Trump’s administration could use the crucial hours and days after November’s midterm elections to disrupt the results after struggling to enforce a crackdown on voting.
With less than six weeks remaining until polls close, and control of US Congress in the balance, the post-election “counting window” is seen as as a particularly vulnerable moment by former US federal government officials.
While the US president’s bid to impose sweeping restrictions on mail-in ballots was rejected by the supreme court earlier this month, there is apprehension that Trump and his allies could use the period while votes are counted to amplify unfounded allegations in a bid to challenge results that don’t go their way.
Harshest possible penalty, yes, but the state should not be condemning people to death. The human race can do better than that.
That is fair, and I’d could even be persuade to agree. However, I believe this is actually the penalty for this type of treason. Please someone correct me if I am wrong or add nuance to my wide paint brush.
Far as I know, in the US it is. I still don’t agree with the death penalty. Plus, I’d rather that person rot in prison for the rest of their life anyway for a seriously heinous crime.
