Life in prison seems fair to me.
I don't like it, but most states do have laws against it, and even then the instances are rare.
What I find troubling is that you want to have draconian punishments after the fact. You can't argue for the EC, then advocate for punishment for people that are in some instances not going against any law in their state, and when then the punishments aren't draconian.
I'm just astounded by the selective choosing of election procedures here.
