Three Floridians were charged Tuesday in relation to an alleged 2020 scheme to run sham candidates in local elections, part of a convoluted plot with murky links to Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL).
Is this thing on?
Election fraud seems to be a GOP feature and not a bug.
this is Desantis country…
Why do you think they loudly and constantly accuse Democrats of it?

Unbelievable. They’re like the coronavirus. Finding new and inventive ways to mutate and infect the rest of the body politic.
It’s so much easier if you cheat.
That really is what they get up and undertake as their mission every day.
If you ain’t cheatin’, you ain’t tryin’!
“…a deluge of bad news for Gaetz, with reports that federal prosecutors were examining his possible involvement sex trafficking an underage girl.”
When you hear Republicans mindlessly parroting “Groomers!” at Democrats?
More projection than a laser light show above klieg lights outside a multiplex cinema.
Daddy Gaetz still taking care of his boy…
When are charges going to be filed for Gaetz’s sex trafficing of minors.
Hmmm. And up in MIchigan the same group of signature gatherers “worked” for two different candidates who both ended up with way high numbers of false signatures. 'Can’t help but believe that those signature gatherers might have actually been working for the third candidate who now has a clear path forward.
Yes, these are not the charges we’re looking for. (I feel there should be a Jedi joke in here somewhere)
Well, this is the Republican brand. Cheat by every means necessary. Running fake candidates is not new for them; Republicans bankrolled Green candidates in years past, to siphon votes from the Democratic candidate. But now, apparently, they don’t even feel the need to run an actual person!
This matches with the Michigan signature fraud racket, which looks as if one R candidate colluded with a Republican signature gathering outfit so that the signatures collected for his opponents were mostly fraudulent. (Just an allegation so far, but very believeable).
Of course, the media will “both sides” these stories to make it seem as if Democratic behavior is equivalent, if not worse.
Last night Rachael Maddow mentioned (in a separate context) the axiom…
HE WHO SMELLED IT… DEALT IT
I chuckled thru the rest of her show.
Gaetz, et al, are way the “F” overdue for a comeuppance, legal and otherwise. Please proceed!!
Charges filed for an election fraud scheme in…wait for it…2020. This is why Repubs keep trying it. They know they have a good chance of it working and if it doesn’t, no one pays for it until years after the election. They’ve gamed the system. The only solution is hardcore election reform, but we’ll never get to that because…they’ve gamed the system.
Awwww. Spicy got bumped…
The right-wing Newsmax network hired former Fox News anchor Greta Van Susteren to lead their weeknight lineup, reportedly bumping former White House press secretary Sean Spicer out of his slot.
