This case was about voter intimidation and suppression, making an example rather than rooting out any actual voter fraud. Glad Crystal Mason can finally put it behind her. Story: buff.ly/bOwZsUQ

Stories like this have, for ages, treated men's desire to harm women as a sort of background noise, a weather we just normalize and accept and try to work around. Feminism is among other things a process of denormalization.
