Krasner issues stern warning on election intimidation: 'F around and find out'
Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner has issued a stern warning to anyone considering intimidating voters or interfering with the upcoming election.
"If you're thinking about messing with our election, I've got a message for you: F around and find out," Krasner said at a press conference on Tuesday.
Krasner's warning comes amid growing concerns about the potential for voter intimidation and suppression in the upcoming election. In recent weeks, there have been reports of voter intimidation tactics being used in several states, including Pennsylvania.
Krasner said that his office is taking the threat of voter intimidation seriously and that he will prosecute anyone who tries to interfere with the election.
"We will not tolerate any attempts to intimidate or suppress voters," Krasner said. "We will use every tool at our disposal to prosecute anyone who breaks the law."
Krasner also urged voters to report any incidents of voter intimidation to his office or to the Pennsylvania Attorney General's Office.
"If you see something, say something," Krasner said. "We need your help to protect our democracy."
Krasner's warning is a reminder that voter intimidation is a serious crime. Anyone who tries to interfere with the election could face criminal charges.
If you are concerned about voter intimidation, there are several things you can do:
- Report any incidents of voter intimidation to your local election officials or to the Pennsylvania Attorney General's Office.
- Educate yourself about your voting rights and the laws against voter intimidation.
- Encourage your friends and family to vote and to report any incidents of voter intimidation that they see.
By taking these steps, you can help to protect our democracy and ensure that everyone has the opportunity to vote freely and fairly.
In addition to Krasner's warning, the Pennsylvania Attorney General's Office has also issued a warning about voter intimidation. The Attorney General's Office has said that it will prosecute anyone who tries to intimidate or suppress voters.
The Pennsylvania Attorney General's Office has also created a website where voters can report incidents of voter intimidation. The website is available at: https://www.attorneygeneral.gov/voting-rights/
If you are concerned about voter intimidation, please report it to your local election officials or to the Pennsylvania Attorney General's Office. You can also find more information about voter intimidation on the Attorney General's website.
