No, Mackey (no capital K) got arrested and convicted for sharing a meme he claims to have gotten off 4chan, which told people to "vote from home" by texting a number, and nowhere on the meme did it say it was parody.
According to court documents, almost 5,000 people fell for this.
There were multiple memes, but here's one I managed to save. The date was correct.
The arrest was bullshit, I agree. They were looking for a reason to take him down. I remember him from Twitter, @Ricky_Vaughn99 or something like that.
Tucker Carlson interviewed him before he had to report to jail. Check it out if you haven't already.
