    Local officials get a list of felons who are ineligible to vote from the state. Who run's the state?

    Wasn't he the third guy on the left behind DeSantis in the photo of him making this major crime breakthrough?

    Dude, give it up. These people still shout about the Democrat conspiracy of the electoral board in Nevada made up of 5 Republicans and one Democrat. Bias doesn't even begin to describe them.

    Thanks for giving me a tie in, to post what I just heard, which is pretty effin funny, and has to do with Florida's glorious leader, DeSantis. The defeated & disgraced, but not cowed, leader of the Republican Party, Trump, will be going to Florida on the Sunday, 2 days prior to the election, to a rally for Rubio... wait for it... and Governor DeSantis, is not invited! This means that nor will any Republican politician be available to go to a DeSantis rally, on that day. An elbow to DeSantis' neck, thrown by Trump, is what it's being called.

    Well, the mere thought of Donald T**** throwing anything is sort of laughable, but the fact that he feels he has to hit a reasonably safe race like Rubio's is pretty interesting..

    Here's a link

    https://www.cnn.com/2022/10/27/politics/trump-miami-florida-rally-rubio-desantis/index.html

    I think the larger question is who is the true beneficiary here.... DeSantis by not having to go, or Rubio, who can't get out of it...

    They get list when they do purges you know the purges the left complainant about. Who uses the list the local election officials WHO ARE IN CHARGE OF ELECTIONS. The officials do not do a criminal check of people registring. It is quite clear on the form. It is the responsibilty of the offender to confirm.with the court if their voting has been reinstated and make sure they are not violating the law.

    Even the basement dummy has more sense than to stay away from topics like this. Sounds like you have an issue with Rubio's race.

    Disgusting, to say the least. However, given the current DNC and the things they have been saying, this is pretty typical.

    Local officials verify eligibility from a list given to them by the state. Florida law dictates this and specifically outline the state is supposed to hand over a list of felons who are not eligible to vote. Are you okay with the state not doing their job?

    Actually it is the judicial branch, the circuit court for state and local and the US Attorney who sends list of convictions and sentencing and restitution. List which routinely contain errors and omissions. It is STILL the burden of the voter to affirm their own standing with the court.

    Oath upon registering.—A person registering to vote must subscribe to the following oath: “I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will protect and defend the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution of the State of Florida, that I am qualified to register as an elector under the Constitution and laws of the State of Florida, and that all information provided in this application is true.”
    http://www.leg.state.fl.us/statutes...ng=&URL=0000-0099/0097/Sections/0097.051.html

    How does someone know if their voting rights have been restored?
    The following Florida agencies have resources to assist applicants in verifying sentencing obligations:

    If a voter was removed from the voter roll due to a felony conviction, will he/she be automatically re-registered to vote?
    No. Newly eligible voters who have previously been removed from the voter rolls due to a felony conviction must re-register. State law requires all voters to be registered at least 29 days before an election.

    Applicants may register to vote:

    • Online at RegistertoVoteFlorida.gov (requires a Florida DL or ID card and the last four digits of your SSN)
    • By Mail (print and complete the Florida Voter Registration Application (English PDF/ Español PDF) and mail it to our office no later than 29 days prior to Election Day to be valid for the upcoming election)
    • At the Marion County Supervisor of Elections office: 981 NE 16th Street, Ocala, FL 34470
    • At any voter registration agency (such as a Tax Collector’s Office or Public Library)
    How will the Supervisor of Elections office handle voter registration applications now?
    Under this new law, the role of the Supervisor of Elections remains the same. If the voter affirms they meet all qualifications, we will register them.

    It is the applicant’s responsibility to affirm that all information submitted on the voter registration application is true [Florida Statute 97.053(5)(a)8].

    It's the Florida Department of State who is supposed to help verify eligibility.

    https://files.floridados.gov/media/705051/elections-integrity-safeguards-in-florida-updated.pdf

    Were the felons given the opportunity to contest their ineligibility status as required by law before they were arrested?

    They, and others, can assist and it remains the prospective voter to make sure they have met the stipulations. They has every chance before they registered. I believe most cleared up the problems and charges were dropped.

    And another case bites the dust... and now they're all starting to use the same argument. That apparently, the state prosecutors have no idea what the state prosecutors are allowed to prosecute.... in the state.

    SNIP
    Miller’s attorney, Robert Barrar, challenged the prosecution, using the same argument that was successful in front of another judge: Statewide prosecutors didn’t have the ability to bring the charges.

    Under state law, statewide prosecutors are restricted to prosecuting crimes in multiple jurisdictions, such as a drug trafficker who sells drugs in multiple counties.

    The Office of Statewide Prosecution “does not have jurisdiction to investigate and prosecute the Defendant as part of a related transaction in two or more judicial circuits,” she wrote.

    Barrar added, “Let this be a lesson to all not to use the legal system for political gain and waste taxpayers’ hard earned money.”
    ENDSNIP

    https://www.yahoo.com/news/another-florida-voter-fraud-case-001410953.html

    I don't think they'll get that lesson, counselor....

    Not sure why all the cases cannot somehow be dismissed immediately under the same theory?? Surely, they all follow the same pattern?

    This is setting up to be another YUGE public failure of the DeSantis regime.... Maybe you supporters should be rethinking Nikki Haley? Somebody who was actually able to run a state??

    "Courts"? Hyperbole. One idiot judge.
    "remarkable" try "ridiculous".
    Speaking of 'blistering', the only thing the Eleventh Circuit didn’t do with Judge Walker’s stupid ruling was roll it up and stick it in his eye.

    'US District Judge Mark Walker’s ruling, the appeals court said Thursday, was legally and factually flawed. The 11th Circuit also reversed a holding by Walker that would have required Florida to seek federal approval for any future election rule changes that are similar to the provisions he had struck down.'

    This stupid judge wanted to put the Elected Legislature on probation and require the Entire Elected Legislature to run every law past him, and unelected judge, first.

    'Writing for the 11th Circuit panel majority, Circuit Judge William Pryor took issue with the trial judge’s conclusions that, by passing new election rules that targeted voters who tend to vote Democratic, the Florida Legislature was also targeting voters – and specifically voters of color – by race.'

    The stupid judge is also woke, that's not a surprise.

    '“we must be careful not to infer that racial targeting is, in fact, occurring based solely on evidence of partisanship. Evidence of race-based discrimination is necessary to establish a constitutional violation.”'

    You mean you need actual evidence to establish a constitutional violation that allows an unelected judge to overrule the entire elected legislature and put them on a 10 year probation? Who knew?

    THIS STUPID WOKE JUDGE WILL HEAR THE DISNEY SUIT.

    'Judge Walker will hear the upcoming suit by Disney over Governor DeSantis dismantling Disney’s Reedy Creek.'

    So we'll hear more from Judge Woke Stupid, and then the Appellate Court will blister Judge Woke Stupid's ass, again.
