If anyone's curious, this is the meme that Doug Mackey was convicted for.

You do realize drop box voting and ballot harvesting were legalized in some places, right? With "pandemic voting methods" going up all over the country, and this disguised as an ad from the Clinton campaign, it is absolutely not ridiculous. This was not a joke, there is nothing funny on it. This was an attempt to deceive. At best this could be called a prank, but a prank to trick people into missing an election isnt legal.
The only reason anyone would be suspicious of this information is if they saw who posted it and knew he was not the type of person to promote pro-hillary info. The info itself has nothing on it to give away that it's untrue or satire.In fact it does the opposite and claims to be a real advertisement paid for by the Hillary campaign.
I was totally on the memer's side when i heard this story but upon seeing the image in question, this is not a meme.
This was 2016. HUGE difference between vote-by-mail and texting “Hillary to 59925” like it’s American Idol. I stand by my statement.
It does come off as more of a joke the further back you go. I still doubt you can disseminate it on official campaign mailers w their logos and everything.
