Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner has issued a strong warning against any attempts to meddle with the voting process, as Philadelphians prepare to head to the polls.

As reported by The New York Post, Krasner’s no-nonsense message was spurred by a past incident where two armed men threatened to “straighten out the vote.” This time, Krasner’s stance is clear: any effort to intimidate voters or disrupt the election will face swift consequences.

Speaking on Monday night, Krasner took a firm stance: “Anybody who thinks it’s time to play militia, F around and find out.”

He continued, “Anybody who thinks it’s time to insult, to deride, to mistreat, to threaten people, F around and find out.”

He emphasized that the law is ready to protect the integrity of the election, with resources to ensure that any actions of coercion or voter intimidation will not be tolerated.

“We do have the cuffs, we do have the jail cells, we do have the Philly juries and we have the state prisons. So if you’re going to try to turn an election into some form of coercion, if you’re going to try to bully people, bully votes or voters, you’re going to try to erase votes, you’re going to try any of that nonsense, we’re not playing. F around and find out. That’s what we’re going to do,” Krasner stated.

This election season holds particular significance, as Pennsylvania voters could play a pivotal role in determining the nation’s next leader. The final poll from the New York Times/Siena shows a tight race between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris, underscoring Pennsylvania’s role as a critical battleground state.

In a recent legal maneuver, Krasner filed a lawsuit against Elon Musk and his pro-Trump super PAC, America PAC, over daily $1 million giveaways targeted at swing-state voters.

Krasner argued that these giveaways amounted to an illegal lottery, alleging that they could influence voters unfairly. However, Judge Angelo Foglietta denied Krasner’s request to stop the daily prizes, with Musk’s legal team clarifying that the winners are not randomly selected.

Krasner’s efforts underscore the heightened attention on election integrity, especially in swing states like Pennsylvania. With stakes high, Krasner’s message is a clear warning that election interference, intimidation, or bullying will not be tolerated.
