Discussion: Federal Judge Lets Florida Voters Fix Mismatched Ballot Signatures

3 Likes

The whole ā€œSignatureā€ thing is bullshit anyway.
I vote by absentee
I get mailed one ballot to my home address
It cant be duplicated
Someone is going to steal it and forge my signature?

The people who forge signatures are the same people who show up in person to vote, then go to the car and put on a disguise and go back and vote again and again. s/

At least we can rest assured this judge isnā€™t issuing these rulings for nefarious reasons. Itā€™s not as if heā€™s named Curiel or something like that.*

Not that thereā€™s anything wrong with that.*

Although there is. You just canā€™t say it.*

***Well, you can say it, but just be sure you do it in front of the proper audience.

The basic tenet of any and all rulings should be to make sure that everybody has access to voting and that all election results are based on and accurate and timely count of all votes. It is so simple and obvious it makes you want to cry.

I hear the recount in Broward has found 700 more votes for Gore.

Well, whatā€™s the point of illegally seizing power if the masses and their idols donā€™t bow and scape before proxies for your manifest worthiness?

How soon will the cracks start showing on Scottā€™s ovoid head?

Maybe just a coincidink:

But the judge that allowed an extension for allegedly mismatched signatures was appointed by Barack Obama and has clashed with Scott several times: In February 2018, Walker ruled against Florida and ordered Governor Rick Scott to restore the voting rights of felons after their release from prison.In September 2018, Walker decided another significant voting rights case, in which he granted a preliminary injunction against Floridaā€™s Secretary of State, directing him to ensure that Spanish speaking voters have access to ballots in the Spanish language for the November 2018 elections.

In the two cases won by Scott against PBC and Broward the judges were appointed by Jeb Bush and have STRONG Republican partisan political histories and connections.

Every one of his signing statements must be rejected.

His signatures donā€™t match:

When does anyone think this will end? If it ends in our favor, it would be a first in dear Florida.

This is a good ruling. Iā€™d like signature match to be invalidated entirely, but this gives a chance to get more votes counted. With margins this tight, every vote counts.

How do they decide which ballots get a review? And how do they get in touch with the 4000 people whose signatures didnā€™t ā€œmatchā€? And how can they guarantee that GOP activists arenā€™t going to show up at those offices demanding to see their signatures and gumming up the process so the deadline canā€™t be met.

This sucks all the way around.

All they have to do is put on a hat, or switch hats. Trump said so.
