Florida to release larger potential noncitizen voter list [View all]

TALLAHASSEE — A month before a statewide election, Gov. Rick Scott's top elections official will belatedly release a database of 180,000 voters whose citizenship is in question.

But in an about-face from an earlier and highly controversial voter purge effort, no one faces being removed from the state's voting rolls this time — meaning some noncitizens could cast ballots in the Aug. 14 primary.

Reversing course, Secretary of State Ken Detzner agreed the list of names is a public record after talking with Attorney General Pam Bondi's office.
