On Fire! DeSantis Signs Bill Creating Elections Security Force
By far, the most effective governor in the USA does it again.
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, who is always one step ahead of the left again, just signed a bill that would create an elections security force in Florida.
This force would investigate voter fraud claims and increase penalties for the violation of state election laws.
A new security office would be created to investigate claims of voter fraud while increased penalties could be imposed on those violating state elections laws, under a measure signed Monday by Gov. Ron DeSantis.
The legislation (SB 524) was approved by the Republican-controlled state House and Senate in mostly party-line votes and marks the second straight year when DeSantis drove elections changes through the Legislature. …
“The bill I’m going to sign today really builds on the success that we had last year. I think some of these things are really going to be significant,” DeSantis said, at a rally-like bill-signing held inside a Spring Hill sports bar.
Governor seizes on ‘ballot harvesting’
The bill also makes it a felony to collect and submit more than two vote-by-mail ballots on behalf of others — upping the penalty from a misdemeanor. DeSantis hailed the step as another attack on what he calls “ballot harvesting,” a practice which many experts say is rare, but a frequent target for conservative wrath.
In addition, the new Florida law requires election officials to update voter roll lists more frequently, making these an annual task, while requiring the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles to give election officials a monthly list of people whose ID’s show they aren’t U.S. citizens.
“We want to be in a situation where everyone knows the rule…know that you can go vote in person, you can vote absentee, but what you can’t do is collect a bunch of ballots and dump them somewhere,” DeSantis said.
Can you imagine what Florida will look like when DeSantis runs for President in 2028?
