But some of the other calls, where someone not associated with a campaign blatantly attempting to harass potential voters deserves consideration in the context of the whole conversation. It's a false pretense and if left unchecked sets a bad precedent for elections moving forward.

I think considering it at all just serves to distract from the serious offense here.
Calling someone during dinner time being considered in the same breath as a massive campaign of voter disinformation? That's like trying to convict a guy for murdering a store clerk but taking up the courts time to also try him for stealing a chocolate bar on the way out the door. At some point it really becomes irrelevant.
