Prohibits deceptive practices and the suppression of voters, and increases penalties for violations of the elective franchise

S 1085 prohibits spreading false information that prevents voting (like fake election times or eligibility rules) and bans using force or threats to stop people from voting as they choose. It applies to candidates, campaigns, and organizations that intentionally share deceptive election details or suppress voter rights. Violations are misdemeanors (up to one year in jail or $500 fines for first offenses), with increased penalties for repeat violations. The attorney general can prosecute these offenses alongside local prosecutors.
