Don't worry, I'm sure she'll get a very harsh sentence, like those people with revoked voting rights who mistakenly think they can vote with provisional ballots in good faith and get tossed in prison for years because of it, right?

Well that’s the thing, something this massive hasn’t happened before. At least hasn’t happened before and successfully prosecuted.

Going by guidelines, she’s looking at two and a half centuries of prison. How sentencing will actually go, who knows? There’s literally nothing to base it on.
