Governor Ron DeSantis signs Florida election law while shutting out all media but Fox News
GOP Gov. DeSantis signs Florida election law while shutting out all media but Fox NewsFlorida Gov. Ron DeSantis on Thursday signed into law a sweeping election bill that has drawn accusations it will suppress voter turnout and already faces a legal challenge.
DeSantis signed the bill, SB 90, in a closed-door event that blocked out all reporters and media coverage — except for Fox News, which in a live interview applauded the Republican governor for his response to the coronavirus pandemic.
DeSantis said in a press release that the new voting rules are designed to boost election security. "Floridians can rest assured that our state will remain a leader in ballot integrity," he said.

Democrats pass good laws with honest reasons. Republicans pass bad laws with dishonest excuses.
