Fed gov't set to sue FL over voter purge

Since the 2010 election, Republicans have waged an unprecedented war on voting, with the unspoken but unmistakable goal of preventing millions of mostly Democratic voters, including students, minorities, immigrants, and the elderly, from casting ballots in 2012. More than a dozen states, from Texas to Wisconsin and Florida, have passed laws designed to impede voters at every step of the electoral process, whether by requiring birth certificates to register to vote, restricting voter registration drives, curtailing early voting, or requiring government-issued IDs to cast a ballot.


Within days, the crucial battlegrounds of Pennsylvania and Virginia will become the latest GOP states to pass legislation erecting new barriers to voting. If, as expected, the new laws lead to fewer Democrats casting ballots in November, both states could favor Republicans, possibly shifting the balance of power in Congress and denying Barack Obama a second term.
Pennsylvania will be the ninth GOP state since 2010 to require a photo ID in order to vote; the state's law mandates a government-issued ID or one from a college or nursing home. According to a study by the Brennan Center for Justice, 11 percent of U.S. citizens lack a government-issued ID, but the numbers are significantly higher among young voters (18 percent), voters 65 or older (18 percent) and African-Americans (25 percent). Based on these figures, as many as 700,000 Pennsylvanians may not be able to vote in the next election.

why do you want illegals to vote?

Because his favored bullshit artist cannot win without the illegal vote counting?

Yeah, I noticed that Rolling Stone is treated with some reverence...just one of us DARE citing a Fox News article and watch the proverbial fecal matter strike the rotary oscillator...
 
Notice they won't address the 90 day law violation. How honest and upstanding the repubs are. Tell us more about how you respect the rule of law and freedom. Try to keep a straight face.

If you request access to the improved Federal database for more than a year and are continuously denied access, then you use the database you have. Voters rolls need to be updated on a routine basis.
None the less Florida has what is called a provisional ballot This ballot is issued to a voter at the voting site or precinct whose eligibility to vote cannot be verified.
Frequently Asked Questions - Florida Division of Elections - Department of State

So with the use of the Provisional ballot no eligible voter would lose their vote.

Thankfully Gov Scott is protecting my vote from being diluted by ineligible voters
