Ted Cruz, the "Constitutional Attorney", the "smartest lawyer in the room", by sending these "Voting Violation" mailers, in my opinion, violated the following federal election laws. Many States have similar laws.
The following is an image of a mailer Senator Ted Cruz sent out intimidating and threatening voters. It contains voter information and the information of the voter's neighbors.
It threatens "follow up notices" with no doubt information about if the voter voted in the caucus.
It attempts to intimidate voters by threatening public disclosure to neighbors of a person's voting record.
One must ask what does Senator Ted Cruz expect the person receiving this notice should do to their neighbors for not voting as Senator Ted Cruz demands, and what might happen to the voter if the neighbors are informed they have not voted as Senator Ted Cruz expects?
These are direct threats and intimidations in violation of federal election, civil rights, and postal laws.
Intimidate: To frighten someone using derogatory information in order to make them do what one wants.
The following PDF document outlines the federal election laws and the government's position on such matters for the purposes of prosecutions in such matters.
