Does Florida have 2 sets of laws - Just Us for the connected and throw the book for everyone else?
Why was the Ann Coulter vote fraud investigation being handled by the Palm Beach Sheriff's office and a first year detective in the first place?

In the North Carolina McHenry aide voter fraud incident story, the investigation is being handled by the District Attorney for that county in North Carlina - a big difference, don't you think?

In Florida, are voter fraud allegations routinely "investigated" by the Sheriff's Department? Who then gave it to a first year detective who did not interview any one of the major participants? Who then also allowed an FBI personally involved agent to intercede and shut down the case?

Was a Florida DA involved? If not, why not? When does the USA get involved in vote/election cases?
I ask these questions that I really do not know the answer to.


As someone pointed out in another thread, the Coulter story is almost a summation of what the AG story is about - having a different set of rules,investigations and outcomes for the well-connected.

1. This case DOES put it in high relief. .
The DOJ is hot on the trail of people voting improperly, but only black people, hispanics and poor people.. . . (to cull the rolls of Democrats).

When a famous(infamous) RW, white, blond (?) shill votes improperly, an FBI MAN (!) comes to her defense.

Now don't be obvious guys, ok?

3. Two or three sets.
The top level are the big players. The second level are the pay for view level. And the third level are the ignorant masses, or the helpless new junkies.

4. The answer to that is yes, after 8 years of Jebbles. There are one
set of rules for connected Republicans, and another for everyone else.
