http://www.miamiherald.com/2011/05/19/2224624/gov-rick-scott-signs-controversial.htmlTALLAHASSEE -- Gov. Rick Scott on Thursday signed a controversial overhaul of the election laws that Republicans say is needed to prevent voter fraud and Democrats call a cynical act of partisanship to improve GOP chances in Florida next year.
"I want people to vote, but I also want to make sure there’s no fraud involved in elections," Scott said. "All of us as individuals that vote want to make sure that our elections are fair and honest."
But election supervisors, who run elections in Florida, say the state’s voter registration database is highly accurate and warn Scott that the changes could cause chaos and confusion at the polls next year. The League of Women Voters says it will suspend voter-registration activity in Florida because the bill requires such groups to register with the state and face fines of up to $1,000 for mistakes.
The bill cuts days of early voting from 15 to eight, imposes fines on third-party groups that fail to submit voter registration forms within 48 hours, and requires some voters who have moved to cast provisional ballots, a change most likely to affect college students.
