what was illegal about the call? coercion? I don't know the election statutes...
It’s all intent.. it’d be one thing if that was the only call made but it was a pressure campaign with calls made from various people within the administration and even Lindsey Graham called there too on Trumps behalf..it was a concerted attempt to “find” the votes.. lock them all up..

He literally tried to overthrow the election in GA committing multiple crimes in the process
...


Georgia has a state law against “criminal solicitation to commit election fraud.” That law makes it illegal for a person to intentionally solicit, request, command or otherwise attempt to cause another person to engage in election fraud.

A separate federal law makes it illegal to attempt to “deprive or defraud” people of a “fair and impartially conducted election process.”

It is illegal under both federal law and Georgia statutes to solicit the commission of election fraud, and it is hard to interpret the president’s threatening call demanding that election officials ‘find’ votes for him otherwise,” said Duke University School of Law professor Lisa Kern Griffin, a former federal prosecutor.

Explainer: Did Trump break the law by pressuring a Georgia election official to 'find' votes?
