How did the state of Florida allow 20 felons to get voter registration cards if they were clearly ineligible to get their rights restored?
That his own administration failed to flag ineligible voters doesn’t seem to faze Gov. Ron DeSantis. He has made a spectacle of the 20 voter fraud arrests he announced with fanfare during a news conference in August. The arrested told the Miami Herald they applied for and received voter cards from their local supervisor of elections office. In other words, they didn’t know they couldn’t vote, and the officials who were supposed to stop them didn’t.
Moving forward, the DeSantis administration has a solution for that, but doesn’t involve fixing this broken system.
