Governor Ron DeSantis Signs Bill Creating New Florida Election Police Force

In an effort to fight election crimes, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signed a bill Monday which creates a police force dedicated to pursuing voter fraud and other election crimes, embracing a top priority of Republicans after former President Donald Trump’s unfounded accusations that his reelection was stolen.

Special police! Hey, I’ve seen this one somewhere before!

Pretty soon he's going to be telling you who can be on ballots, what you can buy in the stores and what time you need to go to bed.

Nothing to see here, just another UNNECESSARY expansion of Government size, scope and cost

Ron used to be so proud of his state and the honesty of its elections, so what happened Ronny? What a total crock of GOP BS at THE TAX PAYERS EXPENSE! Vote DeSantis out in 2022.He is no good for the great state of Florida.

[davyboywilliams]

He's gonna feel very stupid when he finds zero fraud.

[davidmanero]

This is great news. People coming to Florida from NY and CA will want to create here the same mess they have other there, which is the main reason for them having to leave their state in the first place! So voting security is definitely going to be needed! #BestGovernorEver :)

[Geez]

What's next DNA test to ensure you have roots in Florida. Cheaters always wanna change the rules when they cant win.

Not sure what any of that stuff will find, given that states haven't had problems with any of it. I would like to see old voter registration rolls cleaned up - that would caught Mark Meadows registering to vote in three states (at least one using an address of a mobile home that he never owned or lived at). Banning ballot harvesting is good - that would have caught the North Carolina Republican (running for governor?) whose son turned him in for harvesting ballots... and would have saved taxpayers from funding a second election.
