It is crazy to pass a law that says you cannot give someone in line waiting to vote a bottle of water. How about opening (instead of closing) more voting places so people don't have to wait in line so long that they actually get hungry/thirsty.

As I understand it, the law only prevents candidates and their campaigns, from handing out water. Polling places can have water and food, it just can't come from a campaign. I agree it's a silly rule, but also not a big deal, how many people are dying of dehydration in November while standing in line to vote?

I think more voting places is a great idea.

And I think the liberal opposition to showing ids, is horsesh-t.

If you found a bunch of professional problem solvers who had zero political affiliation, and asked them how to make sure voting is honest, the first thing they'd say is "in person voting when possible, with id verification".

It cannot be racist to require id, unless you make blacks follow a harder process to get the id, than whites.

Ron DeathSantis is currently talking about issues with voting fraud in Florida.

Remember, the only four people charged with voter fraud in Floriduh 2020 were four Republicans from the Villages.

You should email the governor, tell him you call him that, see if it doesn't make him resign in shame.

Meanwhile, 900 people a day are moving there from out of state.

They need them

A Florida state agency spokesman was killed in an apparent road rage incident near the state capital, authorities said.

The Leon County Sheriff's Office said in a news release that John Kuczwanski, who was the director of external affairs for Florida's State Board of Administration, was killed in a shooting outside a convenience store last Thursday.
