Good stuff.
To cite intentions and not actions as justification for violence against Trump supporters is to embrace the logic of even worse beliefs and actors.
If only this sentence was mandatory reading for all the hashtag activists out there... because there are plenty of other groups that could swapped in for "Trump supporters".

They're working overtime to try and prevent an embarrassing series of losses tomorrow in North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana, New Mexico and perhaps California.

That would be a blatant violation of the First Amendment here.

So now I'm reading about Sherrod Brown as a VP candidate for Clinton. Why do people keep trying to suggest Democratic senators that would get replaced by Republican governors?

"I disavow those comments," Ryan said.
Pressed on whether he regretted his own endorsement of Trump that came last week, Ryan added, "I regret those comments he made."
"It's absolutely unacceptable," Ryan said. But he stood by by his support for the controversial business mogul. "Do I think Hillary Clinton is the answer? No I do not."

Not really. Rules like this exist in the states.

I don't know if all those would survive a challenge in the courts. Certainly it could be regulated directly on the property of the polling place, and impeding ingress into the the polling place is obviously not allowed. But if the "within x feet/yards" encloses public places that aren't needed to be used by the polling stations, I think that's a real troublesome infringement of freedom of expression.
