Voter supression in Flordia reaching epic levels

Florida moved up its primary to a week before fall quarter begins at some colleges

Made it illegal for teachers to turn in completed voter registration forms

Disgusting.

Democracy advocates tripped up in Florida vote suppression law

Ann McFall, supervisor of elections in Florida's Volusia County, talks with Rachel Maddow about Florida's new voting laws and the people already victimized for trying to encourage democratic participation in Florida.

Flordia still the laughing stock of America. Except its not funny anymore.

Eventually, the two official people's parties will go to any lengths possible to disenfranchise and devalue the votes of the people who don't vote for them.

Gerrymandering has effectively destroyed democracy and with the GOP recognizing that they are not the choice of the young....of course they will try to eliminate this bloc.

What a fucked up state.

People know about things like this but are not making an effort to make sure they have the proper paperwork. Older citizens and college students know what is going on and have enough time to make sure they get their documents in order but lawmakers are betting on citizens not being proactive enough.

Love way the GOP can not win an honest election.

The GOP version of an old adage:

Better ten thousand citizens be disenfranchised than one person vote fraudulently.

It's as disgusting as it is transparent.
