Florida's Election Already Stolen
ACLU of Florida: Voting Rights Under Attack Again0 comments
Yes, here we go again.
Once, shame on you; twice, shame on me.
ACLU Urges County Elections Supervisors to Verify State’s Felon Matching Records to Prevent Wrongful Purging of Eligible Voters
The BBC's Greg Palast reports:
"Florida has announced a surprise new purge of its voter rolls targeting 40,000 of its own citizens. Following the 2000 race, my investigative team at BBC Television discovered that tens of thousands of those purged by Katherine Harris and Jeb Bush -- mostly black voters -- were utterly innocent. But this racially-poisoned list of voters represented a mass elimination of the civil rights of voters -- and picked the president by removing mostly Democratic voters. And now it's back. After being caught red-handed erasing black voters illegally (a finding confirmed by the U.S. Civil Rights Commission) before the 2000 election, Florida's viciously partisan voting apparatchiks are back at it again..."
Just what kind of democracy was that that we were supposed to be peddling to the rest of the world?
Millions of Americans scream as one:
"Bring Democracy Home!"
