No one thinks it would be a simple task, but if you consider it a threat to democracy you can understand why many want a solution.

Blatant lies intended to scare people into voting a certain way are a problem. How much of a difference is there really between "vote X or I'll kill your family" and "vote X or someone else will kill your family" if the intent is the same?
