US District Judge Robert Hinklehas stepped all over Gov. .Rick Scott's voter suppression efforts. He stated that the purge serves little if any purpose thus rendering them unconstitutional.
“The statute and rule impose a harsh and impractical 48-hour deadline for an organization to deliver applications to a voter registration office and effectively prohibit an organization from mailing applications in. “
The judge determined that irreparable harm will occur if an injunction is not issued; the denial of a right to vote almost always is inflicted on minorities and the elderly - the majority are mostly Democratic voters. When a citizen loses an opportunity to register to vote the opportunity is gone forever.
This is the first case that a federal judge has ruled on the current efforts by Reptilicans to suppress the vote throughout the nation. Let's hope the same boot is used to stomp on Reptilican efforts in all states committing this fraudulent "preventing voter fraud" bullshit posited by the clowns that can't get elected unless they cheat and lie.
Cheers for Judge Hinkle.
