Guilty of thinking and speaking differently from Democrats.
Recall under Stalin when someone said something that displeased Stalin, he wouldn’t be charged with thinking and speaking differently from Stalin.
Instead, the charges would be more along the lines of something like forming a terrorist group with the intention of assassinating Stalin and other communist leaders. For good measure, they’d torture the guy into signing a confession saying so.

There are certain prohibitions against kind of intimidation. This goes a step further. It allows for civil damages. It also says that if you have a gun near a polling place or an elections site, then there's a presumption that you have that weapon for intimidation purposes. And so it gives the presumption that that's the case. So this makes it a bit, this strengthens, I think, our protections for elections officials. And just to add a little bit onto what Neil said and provide some color.
