I am sure some LEGAL effort would be made to be sure their ability to vote would not be hindered, thus allowing the system to get rid of names/individuals that do not belong on the list. They are not the issue.

Front page, above the fold, article in today's Tampa Bay Times entitled "Scott Scoffs at Feds' Demand". Gov Scott claims "the Department of Justice doesn't understand two federal voting laws at the heart of dispute". The DOJ doesn't understand the law, but Scott and his two buddies, Secretary of State Ken Detzner and Attorney General Pam Bondi do.

What is unclear is who is going to do the purging, if Scott wins, since the 67 county Elections Supervisors refuse to break the law, and they are the only ones capable of changing voter registrations. They don't work for Scott. They are elected officials, and Scott can't order them to do anything. Somebody better take Scott aside and tell him being governor is different than being a CEO.


Gov. Rick Scott refuses federal demand to stop hunting for potential noncitizen voters - Tampa Bay Times

Not its not......I want my vote to count and it is clear that florida has overtaken Illinois and new Jersey as the most corrupt state. Purge baby purge

The answer might just be the Federal Government following Federal Law as they continually refuse to do. Again, why is not the conversation on HOW the purging should be done and not IF ????? It is law to do it.

PS....Since you quote the Times quite a bit, I have a condo in Tampa and thus know many folks who actuallly work and write there..you certainly know their bias. Drove down here today and this morning...did you have a tough time finding anything on the Wisconsin vote ?

The DOJ doesn't enforce it's own immigration laws, and attempts to punish states that try to enforce the law in spite of federal refusal to.

So now the left is surprised that the DOJ is not enforcing election laws?

The DOJ under Obama is just another tool for the advancement of the Democrat Party and his own personal agenda, and not the enforcement of laws.

Whats the big deal about this voter purge its to remove people that are dead are not in Florida etc. Every body thinks its to get the democrats. Like defraging your computer it will run better. Give it up.The law is the law,with them we now have a free for all

Have you ever noticed that your posting just goes around and around in circles?

No. It is my civic duty to keep Florida citizens informed about how their constitutional right to vote is being "compromised by Gov Rick Scott's continuing political fights with the Obama administration". So says the Tampa Bay Times in today's editorial which compares Scott to Gov George Wallace's standing in the doorway at the University of Alabama on June 11, 1963.

To sum it up "Florida should not be at war with Washington, and Floridians should not have to rely on the Justice Department to prevent their rights from being compromised by their state government. Governor, we again join in the call for you to stop this flawed purging of the voter rolls".


Governor, halt the flawed voter purge - Tampa Bay Times

how about if he promises to not affect the legitimate, valid voters registered.

And only removes the dead, illegal and unqualified?

Nobody could really take a position that would allow the dead and illegal and unqualified to remain on the rolls....would you? could you?

For the majority that can think in non partisan terms.....fix what is wrong or broken......sorta like motherhood and apple pie.
