No, it should not be illegal then, either.
Here's a point, not that there needs to be one for any form of speech: "Man, ain't it ridiculous how easy voting is, and how error- and corruption-prone? Why, we're one step short of 'Text this number and your vote will count!'"

No, it is legal under current law, as written and properly interpreted through the common law lens which out legal tradition claims.
However, we don't have a functional legal system, we have a system of rituals for legitimizing the exercise of power by those who wield it.
So in your view faking your opponent's campaign literature and sticking it in mailboxes across the city, instructing your opponent's constituents to vote an invalid method, ought to be a totally legal political trick up the sleeve of wiley consultants?
Yes. If your opponent's supporters are retards, they should lose.
Fuck democracy regardless, because it is vulnerable to such stupidity.
