Not for your line of misinformation, no, but it's very poorly written.

The problem is you throw the ill-defined term "ballot harvesting" around freely in hopes that people will automatically equate it with the nefarious practice of dead people voting, in other words someone marking multiple ballots an returning them, masquerading as a number of different voters.
California law proscribes this behavior, and the mail-in/absentee voting procedures are designed to prevent it: someone can collect a number of ballots and return them PROVIDED they have not marked the ballots, they identify the fact that they are returning them on behalf of someone else on each return envelope, and if paid to so do, it cannot be on a piecework rate. Your constant carping about this being "ballot harvesting" displays an extremely negative mindset. Apparently you would readily deny wheelchair-bound residents of a retirement community the right to vote simply because they have very limited means of getting to a post office or drop box to return their ballots. This attitude is consistent with GOPlican voter suppression tactics.
