It's never ending. Rhetoric and hyper-hysteria. "MY GAWD...100 people have the flu...it's a pandemic!!!!"
So 2,600 (of which some are shaky) balloons to 182,000?...amazing. This and other methods are being used across the country to try to suppress, and or disenfranchise, as many as 5 million plus voters...voters who usually cast their ballot as Democrat. I'd say this was a script for a bad B-movie, but unfortunately, it's real.
I questioned the 182k number from the beginning. It's more of the Republican fear campaign...
OMG! THERE'S 182 THOUSAND MEXICANS INVADING OUR VOTING BOOTHS!
Bullshit.
Here's one of the people affected by this:
http://www.tampabay.com/news/politics/elections/one-womans-experience-in-floridas-targeting-of-noncitizen-voters/1232425She's a Republican who works in sales, loves fishing and the beach, and she'll turn 49 next month.
The daughter of Cuban-born parents, she's Hispanic, part of the fastest-growing minority in Florida, and has a long, hyphenated name: Manoly Castro-Williamson.
"Manoly cannoli," she jokes when people don't know how to say it. "Then everybody thinks it's Italian, which it's not. It's Spanish." Manoly is a nickname for Manuela, she said.
Oh yeah, one more thing: Florida falsely accused her of not being a U.S. citizen.
For reasons she can't fathom, her name got on the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles' list of 2,700 suspected noncitizens who may be voting illegally in Florida.
It was a mistake.
