Florida Republicans worried about 2022 as they crafted election law

[mkd]

I won't go in to mail in voting and voter fraud.  I understand why people are skeptical of it, especially when implemented hastily and Illigally and unconstitutionally.  I have the same concerns about Ballot harvesting.

Fixed

Unless there is specific texts that specifically call out a demographic or other, it is just more dems playing the race card to stop real voter ID and integrity laws from being passed.

They were talking specifically about party.  Not Demographic or race. To elaborate on that a little, while Republicans were crapping on mail in voting and talking about how insecure it was and doing everything they could to convince Republican voters NOT to vote by mail in ballot, the Democrats were encouraging it and embracing it.  The box has been opened and now you'll probably never convince enough Republicans to support it to make it beneficial to Republican politicians.

I won't go in to mail in voting and voter fraud.  I understand why people are skeptical of it, especially when implemented hastily and haphazardly.  I have the same concerns about Ballot harvesting.

The article doesn't actually show the emails or even quote them except for a few phrases. Charlie Brown would still try to kick this football, but not me.

It would make sense for them to release or at least link to the texts and emails. Who knows, maybe they will at some point.  

Is Politico known for false reporting?

Is Politico known for false reporting?

In its Sunday magazine this week, which it boasts as "hard-hitting reporting," the US edition of POLITICO published "How Trump Created a New Global Capital of Exiles."

The article criticizes the US administration's immigration policy, claiming that it's "not just Mexicans: New U.S. immigration policies are stranding the world on America's southern border."

In this lengthy dispatch from Tijuana about all of those among the "world on America's southern border," a reporter named Jack Herrera made this claim:

"Jewish people [are] fleeing persecution in Hungary" and that "thousands" of them have shown up at the southern border of the US.

That's outrageous and patently false.

On Twitter, I asked the reporter and POLITICO several times to back up the claim. Then waited, and waited. Nothing.

....... uh, let's just say they don't have a good track record of being unbiased and reporting truths.
Well known Trump haters, they ran several hit pieces against Trump for 4+ years that weren't true, out of context quotes, etc...

Define "suppress" votes.

Holding democrats head's underwater until they can't vote is one definition. Facts says that won't stop them

Let me ask you guys this.  If you were able to read the emails and texts for yourself, would it make a difference?

More than 2.18 million Democrats used mail-in ballots

true... but there are only 1.7 million Dems in Florida     just kidding...

seriously though ... following the 2000 Gore V Bush debacle in Florida
the Florida state government spent a decade rewriting election law... legally

During the XC-19 panic of 2020 state legislators made massive changes, often circumventing
state election laws to do it.

Nationwide, there were 15 million mail in ballots that are unaccounted for.
That is not proof of fraud, or even the implication of fraud.. but it is unacceptable
for that many ballots to be unaccounted for.

California automatically registers you to vote when you apply for a drivers license
and automatically mails you a ballots after that.
They also issue DL's to illegal immigrants.. they say they have checks and balances
to prevent illegals from being registered but also admit to registering 300 to 500K
illegals.  

The bottom line is when a large percentage of the population believes many of the 2020
races were stolen, we are in danger of losing our democracy and our freedom.
Our governments should be working around the clock to restore the peoples faith
in elections.

no.... because we both know the Dems do exactly the same thing.
the difference is rags like Politico will never tell us about it

Two of those mail in ballots were shredded and thrown away by me. My wife and I didn't request them and my wife isn't registered to vote for fear of being put on a jury.

No apologies needed. You didn't know. If I did mention it before it would have been a long while ago and possibly on our previous off topic site.
