More Florida Vote Purge Shenanigans
Posted by Jill | 10:29 AM


Isn't this CONVEEEENIENT.

As Al Gore and George W. Bush campaigned for president, James Bors received what he called a “really nasty letter” telling him he could not vote in the 2000 election.

Four years later, the design engineer believes it is still true.

“I didn’t realize I could vote,” Bors, 40, said from his home in Pasco County.

Public records show state officials in Tallahassee knew for almost a year that Bors and nearly 1,000 other voters were wrongly put on the Secretary of State’s 1999 and 2000 purge lists.

It was not until Aug. 12 that Secretary of State Glenda Hood sent county election supervisors those names, following a month of mediation with civil rights groups.

Local election officials say they are running out of time to return those people to the rolls before next week’s primary, raising the concern they’ll be blocked from another election.
