    Yes, he puts murderers and rapists back on the streets and tells them they can vote, and then he makes a big stink about them voting.

    Maybe he should be more concerned about them maybe killing and raping again, but it seems the voting issue is more important. Its politics.

    Florida issued the card. DeSantis is trying to have it many different ways:

    1. Florida 2020 elections were picture perfect
    2. New laws had to be passed because......Florida voting system was faulty
    3. Allowing murderers vote, and then "catch" them for doing it

    FYI Florida voters passed an amendment which allows ex felons to vote, except for those guilty of murder or a sexual offense.

    anyone who states as the OP did, that going after voter fraud is semi fascist, is not worth your time to debate with.

    My daughter turned 18 and Nassau County Florida mailed her a registration unasked for.


    Also, in Broward county they made arrests and the head of Elections in Broward is a Desantis appointee.

    On these cases. It was not fraud and it wasn’t semi fascist.

    It was a quick campaign add for the rabid right mouth foamers. It’s not going to be shocking when no one arrested goes to trial. The campaign ad is made

    How is the head of elections a DeSantis appointee? Isn't that an elected position?

    Well we'll see if it goes to trial.

    I see my error on that link

    Rick Scott appointed Pete Antonacci to Supervisor of Elections. Pete was absolutely NOT elected.

    Ron just elevated him to the top Elections position.

    Well, Scott appointing Antonacci was an unusual situation, he had to remove the crooked Democratic Elections supervisor. So he had the authority to appoint a replacement, but the position is an elected one, not one appointed by a monarch.

    One defendant said voter groups outside a Walmart helped him. It seems there was a lot of confusion about amendment 4, which allowed some felons to vote.

    It brings to attention though the lack of election integrity in Florida that felons were allowed to vote despite procedures in place to verify eligibility.

    Some of them said local elections officials told them they could vote, so they sent in a registration. Seems like some of them were misled into believing they could vote.

    I knew what the answer was all along but I decided there would be a lot of pointless pushback if I came out and just said it, but I hoped eventually someone would say it for me, and you did, so thank you.

    I'm very curious how the investigation of "voter groups outside Wal-Mart" goes because that will unravel a lot of illegal voting.

    So it's okay for election officials to mislead voters? I like how you are trying to make it black and white when amendment 4 caused confusion to absolve Florida of their inability to verify voter eligibility.

    Actually in My county here in Florida. It was the actual county election volunteers and Supervisor outside our Walmart. How devious of our red county!

    It's not OK for election officials to mislead voters if that's what happened. It's also not OK for outside groups to generate illegal voter registrations. I'm sure the trial will reveal things more clearly.

    The state government is in charge of the verification process. Who is in charge of the state? Hmmmmm......

    Gasp, they go to the High School to register new 18yo’s as well. Oh no! :omfg:


    pfftt. There won’t be any trial. Florida citizens passed the amend to allow felons to vote. The state made it virtually impossible for the Felon to “know” if he was cleared to vote. It wasn’t accidental it was intentional. Finally the leadership decided to arrest make a news conference all to make a political ad.

    Once again Florida politicians do not have a history of being accepting the citizens wishes here.

    here's how it supposed to work in Florida.

    https://m.flsenate.gov/statutes/98.075

    Obviously, there were many missteps. These defendants were not given an opportunity to contest their ineligibility and were hastily arrested by SWAT by an overzealous governor looking to prove a point.

    Uh it was pretty obvious. The amendment specifically didn't cover murderers and sex offenders. And that's who got caught voting. If there isn't a trial, it's because the defendants take a plea deal, thereby admitting guilt.

    Mailing in a voter registration, even while not qualified to vote, is not illegal.
