(Guess). Algorithm showed he lived in a left leaning area of the district.
The law says all long-standing mail in requests must be cancelled. Yours is longstanding. And therefore is cancelled.
That’s pretty much it. Anyone who wants to re-apply for a mail-in ballot is free to do so. But the State very carefully didn’t notify anyone individually. Instead the D party is trying to notify everyone while the R party is carefully pretending this never happened.
The goal is obvious; surprising people who don’t get a mail ballot and then don’t figure it out in time to arrange to be able to vote on election day. Selective disenfranchisement pure and simple.
Once again it’s a law that is non-partisan in its terms created by radical partisans with a radically partisan goal and a radically partisan outcome. That’s how Fascists do it.
But won’t that actually disenfranchise more R voters? Especially military members? Seems like some real own-goal potential, especially if the Ds do a good job notifying everyone.
That and REDMAP are just a couple examples of the Republican Party trying to kill democracy by smothering it in its sleep.
It’ll disenfranchise everyone who’s not paying attention. The R party may very well be carefully notifying those people. Most of the non-resident military are voting in safe majority R districts anyhow.
The goal is to basically kill the part-timer / retiree vote. And the old fart’s home vote. Who are overwhelmingly from the NY / NJ / Phillie / DC area, are concentrated in a few heavily D districts, and are overwhelmingly D voters. Who all have a hard time voting in person. So if they don’t apply for a mail-in soon enough, they can’t vote, period.
If those people are successfully disenfranchised, the Rs may take 75+% of the seats in the Tallahassee legislature, all the state executive positions, and all the federal elected positions as well. And of course carry the state for whoever the R party nominates for President. That becomes pure unchecked one-party rule. First in Talahassee, then in Washington.
DPRF is apparently suffering an epidemic of leprosy, which one might interpret as a sign that some Old Testament-style god is mad at Dear Leader.

News flash: Increasing number of Floridians giving DeSantis the finger.
Well played.
People’s Christian Republic of Florida. PCRF
He’s sinking. A debate is suggested, not him of course, in an attempt to legitimize the re-whiting of history in Floriduh. Harris points out that a debate, discussion, or acceptance of invitation puts a white sheet sheen of respectability on this abhorrent perfidy.
“But it’s such a shameless move that even Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) is mocking the governor about it.” Matt Gaetz people, he’s mocking DeSantis, dog and cats raining from the sky - I forget the expression - holy hell.
I wonder what “beneficial life skills” that minor girl learned during that ordeal.
This might be better in P&E.
Fuck. Florida really does want to be Y’allqueda. DeSantis, of course, is boosting it. So, what is it? Check out Wiki:
The Classic Learning Test (or CLT) is a standardized test developed by Classic Learning Initiatives. Designed as an alternative to other standardized tests such as the SAT and ACT,[1] the test is heavily based in Western culture[2] and was “devised to follow the great classical and Christian tradition”,[3] according to CLI. The CLT was created in 2015 by Jeremy Tate and is based in Annapolis, Maryland.
And why does DeSantis preach it?
From the first link above:
Florida’s consideration of the CLT follows a high-profile dispute between the administration of Gov. Ron DeSantis and the College Board, which administers the SAT, over an Advanced Placement African American history course offered by the organization. After he accused the AP course of left-wing bias, DeSantis said Florida would look for alternatives to other College Board products.
Keep it up, Florida. Soon your students will be eligible only for Florida universities and those degrees will not be recognized outside of that “Christian fortress”.
Standards are important. The more the better.
Please tell me that was sarcasm.
That was sarcasm.
I wish I was sharp enough to make a joke about DeSantis and the CLT.
Au contraire. If you aspire to admittance at Oral Roberts University, Kentucky Mountain Bible College or a couple hundred other fabled institutions of higher learning, and can’t hack the “woke” math and verbal propaganda on the SAT, the CLT offers a swell option.
It’s an extremely sensitive subject.
