The GOP has been playing dirty pool in Fl for years at voter supresión to include lost ballots - but I won’t go into that. We see their crooked ways, one day karma will come a calling
What are you even talking about? There is no voter suppression nor lost ballots.

Where do you live??? In central Fl there’s been lawsuits with re-districting for voting purposes. And in Sfl - I know about the 4 vans found full of ballots during the Bush Election. I just happen to know things not always make the news. But the native citizens know .
The “enabling legislation” passed by the Republican Majority Florida State Legislature, effectively overturned the will of the voters of Florida when they voted in 2018 to restore voting rights, with the exception of murderers and sex offenders, to all felons who have finished incarceration and probation. It’s basically a poll tax.
Are you the poster who every time Brexit pops up, condemns the vote and supports all the roadblocks to it including "they voted to leave, not when and how" and all for politicians ignoring the vote? Or was that not you but other posters?
No, I am not.
What the FL GOP is doing should be illegal, and might actually be. They need to respect the results of democratic elections.

ANd from the ballot;
"A "yes" vote supported this amendment to automatically restore the right to vote for people with prior felony convictions, except those convicted of murder or a felony sexual offense, upon completion of their sentences, including prison, parole, and probation."
Yes, it actually spells out what is included: prison, parole and probation. Nothing about fees.

No, seems you lack knowledge of legal things, the term "include" should clue you in. The legal definition of "sentencing" is pretty clear also. When I voted "yes", this was the expectation that the felon completes the sentencing, including fines and restitution. Nothing the GOP is doing is illegal, because they are doing exactly what the ballot said to do.

I agree. While incarcerated you are in bondage and have absolutely no rights as a person.
But, a free man... walking the streets of society, has all their god given rights.
Voting is a privilege, only citizens are granted.
