Freedom Outpost

More than 60,000 people are now calling for former president Bill Clinton to be arrested and prosecuted for violating election laws. What did Clinton do? He entered multiple polling stations in the Massachusetts area on Super Tuesday.
A petition set up at Change.org is calling for the “immediate arrest of President Bill Clinton for clear, knowing and egregious violation of the campaign laws to swing an election in a significant way.”
According to Massachusetts law:
“Within 150 feet of a polling place…no person shall solicit votes for or against, or otherwise promote or oppose, any person or political party or position on a ballot question, to be voted on at the current election.”
Additionally, campaign operatives are prohibited from distributing “campaign material intended to influence the vote of a voter in the ongoing election” within 150 of a polling location.
According to an interview with the New York Times, Secretary Bill Galvin said, ”We had to remind some of our poll workers that even a president can’t go inside and work a polling place.”
“He can go in, but he can’t approach voters,” Galvin went on, adding that poll workers in New Bedford, Clinton’s next stop, have been reminded of the rules. “We just took the extra precaution of telling them because this is not a usual occurrence. You don’t usually get a president doing this.”
WVBC reported that Brian McNiff, a spokesperson for Galvin, “clarified that Clinton broke no laws during his visits to the interior of polling places because he was not handing out any flyers or voting materials for Hillary Clinton.”
However, it seems that Clinton was doing a whole lot more than what the law allows for. It appears that he acted in direct violation of the law.

Move over, Hillary. The Democratic Party’s presidential primary front-runner may be facing a federal indictment for investigations related to her home-based email service, but according to nearly 100,000 petitioners, it’s her husband, Bill, who ought to be jailed right now.
