20 accused of illegally voting across Florida, DeSantis says

Gov. Ron DeSantis announced 20 people in the state have been arrested and charged with illegally voting in Florida.

His office had announced that he would make a “major announcement” in Broward, leading to questions about whether he could take action against Broward Elections Supervisor Joe Scott. But he said during Thursday’s news conference that was not what he would be doing.

Joining DeSantis for the news conference were Attorney General Ashley Moody; Secretary of State Cord Byrd; Mark Glass, acting commissioner of the Florida Department of Law Enforcement; and Peter Antonacci, the former Broward supervisor of elections who was tapped by DeSantis to oversee a new election crimes division.
