FL Dems better exploit the SCOTUS decision on voting to mobilize minorities in 2014.

The door is so wide open to send minorities to the polls in record numbers. The VRA has been gutted. Rick Scott cheered. He also vetoed the Dream Act.

As I understand it there will be a clean water amendment on the ballot and there may be an attempt to get a medical marijuana amendment on the ballot. Teachers and most other public employees hate the governor.

If African Americans, Hispanics, teachers, environmentalists and other core Dem groups vote in 2014 we win!!!

Let's take back our state!!

while hubby was a lawyer for W, in Bush Vs. Gore! Need I say more?

This is EXACTLY WHY THIS IS ALL HAPPENING AND FLORIDA GOT S T U C K WITH ALISON!

Statewide there are more dems, and you win. The gerrymandering inside prevents any change in Fla and it's staunch drawn republican, again. But statewide, you have half a mil more voters and you win! THAT is what they must prevent. So, it's suppression, because that is the only way to stop a democratic statewide win. The state house and Fed house is a big problem that cannot be changed. This is how they will now stop the statewide wins, of the democrats. And, I just told you who's doing it, and has participated in the past!
