Uh, yeah suuurrree. “Legal” voters. According to whom? We all know the Dems want to round up illegals and people with dead persons’ ids to ratchet up their votes. I mean, how else will you pinko lefties win an election. . Sorry, just couldn’t help teasing. It’s so easy.

Wow, the 14th Amendment includes punishing infringement of voting rights with the stiff penalty of a reduction in representation in Congress. It has just never been used. Really interesting history lesson in Politico.

And, more from Florida:

“In recent years in Florida, we have seen a “purge” of suspected non-citizens from the voter rolls that was abandoned by most counties as unreliable. We endured limits on early voting days and hours, later rescinded after a nationwide outcry, and an illegal ban on early voting by students on campuses that was lifted by a court, and more.

Now there’s a move to mobilize an army of poll watchers in the first major election in which felons can vote in Florida. It comes as Amendment 4 remains tangled up in court, while an appeal demanded by Gov. Ron DeSantis discourages felons from voting while prolonging the uncertainty over whether they must first pay all court costs.

So what will they think in some rural county when a busload of poll watchers arrives from Jacksonville or Miami, just to keep an eye on things?

Everyone wants transparency in elections. But filling local fire stations and churches with faraway poll watchers is not transparency. It’s voter intimidation. The last thing we need in Florida are roving bands of partisans masquerading as voting experts.

No one is pushing for this change except Republican legislators. They’re the ones who need watching, not the voters filling out their ballots.”

McLennan County, home to Waco, Texas, closed 44% of its polling places between 2012 and 2018. During that same period, its population grew by more than 15,000 people with black and Latinx residents driving over two-thirds of the growth.

College students can always vote absenteee. In fact, that is the way it should work.

Most of the people who have been investigated for voter fraud and election fraud lately have been Republicans.

Here’s one from just today. The registered agent for Florida First is a Republican and a big fan of Rick Scott.

Ironic given the actual cases that have been prosecuted have been republicans. There is ZERO evidence of widespread voter fraud in the US.
