#Politics #Florida Voters who haven't voted since 2020 have been purged from the voter rolls. From #FloridaToday:
*****
[V]oters who have not participated in any elections since 2020 ― either by voting or by signing a candidate or referendum petition ― have been removed from the "active" voter list, as a provision of state law the supervisor of elections implemented this year. The office sent affected voters a notice, and took them off the active list if they didn't respond within 30 days.
@WordsmithFL The reason the state has to go to such convoluted means to select its preferred voters is that the courts made it impossible to use straightforward means. At least until to Crow (aka Roberts) Court overturns it.
Then they can simply restrict voting to male property owners who pay a poll tax, and count Blacks as 3/5 of a person.

@WordsmithFL #they took 94 yo off vote by mail #indiana she votes absentee every year.
#Politics Whoops, this might backfire on Republicans ... According to the #FloridaToday article about #SpaceCoast Brevard County:
*****
Bobanic in August mailed a letter to the 150,504 affected voters, and so far has gotten 41,813 requests from voters seeking to get back on the vote-by-mail mailing list. Of those requests, about 44.6% came from Democrats; 37.7% came from Republicans; and 17.7% came from voters who have no party affiliation or are members of a minor party.
