Public Attacks on Elections Face Stronger Voter Backlash, Study Finds
The study looked at whether politicians who tried to undermine the 2020 election faced consequences.

This means that focusing on punishing big, obvious attacks on democracy might not be enough to stop smaller, less obvious threats to elections.
