Every single time a dead person votes or a college student votes five times or an illegal alien votes, it gives the electoral system a black eye. That is why lawmakers in numerous states are trying to create obstacles to make it harder to do. Obviously, this is a case of a law with good intentions but lousy results. Kinda like Obamacare and occupying Iraq for 9 years and Afghanistan for 11 years. Seemed like the right thing to do at the time, but you ended up regretting it later.

And yes I watched the thing Einstein.

why would anyone WANT those not eligible to VOTE to be allowed to VOTE? Doesn't that diminish EVERYONE's vote? It seems to me like any logical person would want those bogus registrants removed and if this is NOT the way to do it, then what is?

What is funny, the Governor has no executive powers, to make a law...

He just signed a common sense bill that made its way through legislation in the Florida State Congress.

Yell at your State Reps and Senators

No matter how much common sense is involved, the other side screams bloody hell.

The Republicans are no better..
Obama could sign into law a cure for cancer and the republicans would go ape **** crazy protesting and vice verse!

They are all so busy screaming about the other side they can't see how STUPID they are and LOOK!

I remember the Daily Show fiercely defending Anthony Weiner and saying that CNN and FoxNews coverage was irresponsible. In the end, Stewart was defending a close friend and his complaints were baseless. There may be some faults with the voter registration law that should be addressed. However, the law addresses a serious concern. Remember, Stewart is a comedian that puts his own political spin on things.

I don't know because most of the people that I know didn't vote for him and many were republicans.
