    Powell appeared in Fulton County Superior Court to plead guilty to six misdemeanor counts of conspiracy to commit intentional interference with the performance of election duties.

    Under the plea deal, Powell will serve six years of probation, pay a $6,000 fine, pay restitution of $2,700 to the state that covers the cost of replacing election equipment, write an apology letter and testify truthfully in future hearings and trials, as well as provide “any requested documents or evidence subject to any lawful privileges asserted in good faith prior to entering this plea.”

    In case you wanted to know how cheaply you can commit election interference.

      You can even do it for free, depending on what kind of state’s evidence you provide to prosecutors.
