Democrats introduce legislation to criminalize lying about elections, with a five-year jail term

Is this the end of Sen. Claire McCaskill’s political career? It would be shocking not to see this mentioned by her opponent.

The Missouri Democrat and other congressional Democrats introduced legislation this week making it a federal crime to knowingly share false election information, including bogus claims relating to “the time and place of elections,” “voter qualifications and registration status,” and making false claims of endorsements “within 60 days of a federal election,” according to the Huffington Post.
