Florida Legislature approves creation of police force to investigate voter fraud
NBCAPR 2022
Election cops are a sign of a dystopian world tarnished by Trump's lies. DeSantis's shameful plan will intimidate and suppress voters. This is a chilling development as DeSantis gears up to possibly run for President.
If Democrats are serious that "every vote counts," then they should support measures that uphold ballot integrity. This bill isn't perfect, but the sum of its provisions are designed to safeguard free and fair elections for all.
DeSantis praised the way the 2020 election was held in Florida, but it's election season and he's next in line if Trump doesn't run for the 2024 nomination; he's simply catering to the base after CPAC's straw poll showed 90% of attendees thought Biden cheated to win.
