Florida Congressman Ted Deutch (D) told Think Progress today that Gov. Rick Scott was engaging in a “blatant attempt to supress voter turnout.” Scott is currently involved in a massive effort to purge up to 180,000 from the voting rolls. The list, purportedly of non-citizens, has proven unreliable. Earlier this week, Seminole County Supervisor of Elections Mike Ertel, a Republican, posted a picture on Twitter of a voter on the list falsely identified as ineligible, with his passport.
We can add this to the long list of Republican efforts to rob all manner of poor, elderly, and minority Americans of the right to vote, Republicans are engaging in fraud in order to steal elections. Forget about government, more than a few of them should be in prison for these crimes against democracy.
Rick Scott stole billions from the US taxpayers in his Medicare fraud. He should have been in prison for that long before he had the chance to be in prison for something like this
