League of Women Voters Sues Florida

Here's a potentially awkward spot for Gov. Charlie Crist: You're possibly interested in running for vice president and your top election official is now being sued by the League of Women Voters over voter access? That's right, the state came under fire today by the League, in cooperation with the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, Council 79 (AFSCME) over the implementation of election registration laws.

So AFSCME and LOWV are upset that they might have to turn in the Republican registrations just as quickly as the Democrat registrations? Get over it...

Hey AFSCME - you have been absolutely useless for the past 10 years. What good are you????

bi tc he s

(and before any feminist rants begin the above was a joke)

But jokes are supposed to be funny.

The right wing legislature will do anything to hold on to power.

Meanwhile, the legislature is slashing education and criminal justice. Once a person is arrested, they have to be prosecuted, but the legislature is forcing out experienced prosecutors in droves.

This group which represents themselves as non-partisan is anything but neutral. They only wish to register democrats and cry that they are being held to a higher standard. Liberal Democrats cry about voter fraud but would rather register illegal aliens and allow voter fraud to continue so if they don't win they can blame the evil republicans.
