Rick Scott's Florida election fraud hits high gear
And with an experienced fraudster like Rick in charge, you know he will succeed in disenfranchising at least 100K voters, mostly Democratic from the voter roles.
Six members of Florida’s congressional delegation are pushing Gov. Rick Scott (R) to stop purging the state’s voting rolls of eligible voters, after numerous individuals were improperly flagged as non-citizens.This is a situation that requires prompt action from the Department of Justice. Is Attorney Corporal Eric Holder up to the task? Is Rick Scott as crooked as an Englishman's teeth?
The state used an outdated driver’s license database in their initial effort to scrub non-citizens from the voting rolls. Officials believed that 182,000 voters on the rolls were non-citizens, and began sending out notifications that required voters to prove their citizenship within 30 days.
But plenty of legal U.S. citizens who should be allowed to vote wound up on the purge list. In Miami-Dade County, 1,638 people were flagged by the state as “non-citizens,” yet at least 359 people provided the county with proof of citizenship and another 26 people were identified by the county as U.S. citizens, ThinkProgress reported. An analysis by the Miami Herald found that Hispanic, Democratic and independent-minded voters were most likely to be targeted by the purge effort.
