Where Racism Still Exists
12 white kids commit actual vote fraud in Ohio. They get no charges on the “I didn’t know I couldn’t do that” defense.
Jamar Barksdale fraudulently registers 18 people in Philadelphia, and he gets charged and held on $150,000 bail.
Anyone want to bet that Jamar is not white?
Jamar deserves to be charged. He doesn’t deserve to be held on $150,000 bail (which requires his family to come up with $15,000 cash just to borrow the rest from a bail bondsman.) And the 12 felons who visited Ohio (allegedly) to commit thier crime sure as hell don’t deserve to walk.

As you well know, mistake of law is not a valid defense. Mistake of fact is, however, that would require some mental gymnastics such as “Oops, I did not realize this was Ohio!”
