I looked at their website and immediately my McAfee popped up with a trojan that appeared to be a bit coin miner of some sort. Tested it on a second machine, its definitely the website. I wouldnt put it past Abrams and company to not only take advantage of ignorant people to get them to vote their way (or steal their mail in ballot), but to install malware on their computer to generate more funds.
