Social Media Influencer Douglass Mackey Sentenced after Conviction for Election Interference in 2016 Presidential Race::“One of the foundational rights we hold as Americans, a right that many fought so hard to obtain, is the right to vote.  The defendant weaponized disinformation in a dangerous scheme to stop targeted groups, including black and brown people and women, from participating in our democracy,” stated United States Attorney Peace. “This groundbreaking prosecution demonstrates our commitment to prosecuting those who commit crimes that threaten our democracy and seek to deprive people of their constitutional right to vote.”
