DeSantis Changes Voting Rules For Red Counties After Hurricane

[turbinetree]

You knew this would happen, right?

By Susie Madrak — October 17, 2022
Ron DeSantis is relaxing voting rules in three Republican counties that were hit hard by Hurricane Ian, and it's not like we didn't expect it -- because he's not making any changes to help voters in the Democratic counties that were also hit hard. Via the Washington Post:

More than 1 million voters in Charlotte, Sarasota and Lee counties will have more time to get to the polls for early voting in the upcoming general election and will have more ways to file a mail-in ballot under the order the Republican governor signed Wednesday.

Some of the accommodations being offered run counter to recently enacted voting laws pushed by DeSantis and passed by the GOP-led state legislature. Among those laws is one that limits drop boxes, called “ballot intake stations” in the law.

1. Just have a team of lawyers

follow this ass and file lawsuit after lawsuit every time he speaks. This can't be legal. All voting rules should be statewide. Period.

2. The counties impacted by Hurricane Michael had changes

to voting rules. The problem isn’t who was granted changes. The problem is who wasn’t.

4. Right, like I said

changes should be statewide.

3. Seems like a violation of the equal protections clause

Hope the FL State Democrats get off their asses and sue rather than wait until they lose.

If DeathSatan won't include the blue counties, than file injunctions and so that the Red counties can't go forward and tie them up in court.
