Democrats probably feel like their heads will explode after Flordia Gov Ron DeSantis announced a HUGE win for the people of his state. DeSantis has a massive target on his back with the left declaring him ‘worse than Trump’ and claiming that his policies are backward politics. However, the Govenor just cleaned the state of at least 20 people who committed voter fraud. These are people who voted despite their criminal history—Which, by the way, were violent felonies that included murder and sexual assault.
But according to Democrats, voter fraud isn’t a thing…
“They did not get their rights restored and yet they went ahead and voted anyways,” DeSantis said during a press conference. “That is against the law and now they’re going to pay the price for it.”
“I also want to be very clear going forward that we’re going to continue to make sure that our laws are rigorously enforced,” he said.
“As elected leaders, it is incumbent on us to ensure free and fair elections and instill confidence in the voting process,” Attorney General Ashley Moody said. “No voting system can stand without the backing and confidence of the people it serves, and thanks to Governor DeSantis, we are reinforcing that trust, and Florida’s elections system will serve as the standard-bearer for the rest of the nation.”
Watch
So who could possibly be upset that these known felons were arrested after they chose to commit voter fraud? Well, Cecile Scoon, president of the nonpartisan League of Women Voters of Florida, said there are still open questions about the election crimes office, such as how law enforcement will be utilized and if their presence will be felt at the polling centers.
DeSantis also said the Office of Election Crimes and Security would look at undocumented voters when they cast their vote in 2020. Just under 11 million Floridians voted in 2020.
“It’s potentially threatening people. They feel these police — how are they going to be utilized? Are they going to be standing over people’s shoulders?” she said.
Scoon added that was concerned that after DeSantis’ recent removal of State Attorney Andrew Warren from office, that election supervisors and officials could be next.
“That was a red flag for me. Because he had removed one person from office, there was a concern of what’s next? What’s going on?” Scoon said.
