The League of Women Voters, acting on behalf of three New Hampshire residents who received the calls, sued Steve Kramer, a Dean Phillips campaign consultant, and two companies that make robocalls, asking for tens of thousands of dollars in injunctions, NBC News reports.
Made in the nights before the New Hampshire primary, the calls purported to be from President Biden saying that the voter would only get one vote this year and they should not waste it on the primary. This, of course, is untrue.
“These types of voter suppression tactics have no place in our democracy,” said Celina Stewart, chief counsel at the League of Women Voters of the United States. “For over 100 years, the League of Women Voters has worked to protect voters from these unlawful crimes and will continue to fight back against bad-faith actors who aim to disrupt our democratic system.”
