Dinesh's movies in a lot of ways ruined politics in this country entirely. Before him, money wasn't considered free speech, PACs weren't a thing, and dark money with foreign influence wasn't pouring in. Citizen's United killed politics and made the battleground an international one thereby eroding our country. **** that guy and his movies, regardless of what he says.
This particular movie would have been legal before CU. Post election movies were not considered electioneering, especially in a case where the content is about the voting process, not about a candidate, like this movie.
I also don't agree with you about Dinesh and his movies in general. The guy has only made 1 movie that might have been considered electioneering, which was the Hillary movie. Even that movie was released well ahead of the election, so under the old standard, it would not have been in violation. The rest were not about a candidate that was running at the time they were released. Two were generic films about the state of the country.
