I think they should make it a requirement of their bail to be remanded to one of Bloomberg's many estates while they await trial.

Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody sent a letter to the FBI and the Florida Department of Law Enforcement this week, asking them to investigate the millions that billionaire Mike Bloomberg helped raise to offset fines and court costs for felons so they can vote.

Moody’s letter says, in part, an “even otherwise innocuous offering of an incentive simply to vote could run afoul” of Florida elections laws. “Incentives could be offered to a voter in a way that would be designed to directly or indirectly cause the voter or a larger group of voters to vote in a particular matter.”

This would violate Florida statutes, which make it illegal to “directly or indirectly give or promise anything of value to another in casting his or her vote," Moody’s letter says.

Moody’s letter states she was asked to look into the matter by Gov. Ron DeSantis.

Lol, fuck DeSantis. That amendment passed by 2.3 million votes. He then attached a poll tax.

Your husband John lived by a code: exploit the “war hero” status to easily get away with being an entrenched, corrupt establishment croney to enrich yourself with power and personal wealth.  There is only only candidate in this race that might allow the McCain family to get their hand back in the cookie jar, and that’s Joe Biden.

number of people who'll change their vote because of this announcement is going to hover near zero.

The court ruled that these fines are not a poll tax.  So paying the fines is not in any way an incentive to vote.  You can't have it both ways.

Texas Attorney General announces 134 felony voter fraud charges in connection with 2018 Democratic primary

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton announced four arrests Thursday on dozens of felony charges in connection with an alleged vote harvesting scheme during the 2018 Democratic primary elections in Gregg County.

“It is an unfortunate reality that elections can be stolen outright by mail ballot fraud,” Paxton said in a statement. “Election fraud, particularly an organized mail ballot fraud scheme orchestrated by political operatives, is an affront to democracy and results in voter disenfranchisement and corruption at the highest level.”

Gregg County Commissioner Shannon Brown, Marlena Jackson, Charlie Burns and DeWayne Ward face 134 felony charges in total, according to Paxton’s office. The allegations include election fraud, tampering with a governmental record, mail-in ballot fraud and more.

“To increase the pool of ballots needed to swing the race in Brown’s favor, the group targeted young, able-bodied voters to cast ballots by mail by fraudulently claiming the voters were ‘disabled,’ in most cases without the voters’ knowledge or consent,” Paxton’s office alleged.

Of the total charges, 97 felony counts were leveled against Jackson, 30 of them for alleged election fraud.

Many of the charges accuse her of fraudulently marking applications for other people, claiming they were eligible for mail-in ballots due to disabilities when they were not disabled.

SUPREME COURT SIDES WITH TEXAS GOP OFFICIALS OVER MAIL-IN BALLOTS, TRUMP CALLS IT A 'BIG WIN'

Commissioner Brown faces 23 counts, and Burns and Ward face eight and six respectively. Penalties range from six months in jail to 99 years in prison.

The primary race in question saw Brown beat a primary challenger by just five votes, 1,047 to 1,042, the Longview News-Journal reported – with 787 mail-in ballots cast.

And Brown is Jackson’s husband, according to the outlet.

“Those who try to manipulate the outcome of elections in Texas must be held accountable,” Paxton said.

The arrests come weeks after Paxton sued in another county and warned them to stop sending unsolicited mail-in ballot applications to voters in a separate case.

That lawsuit accuses Harris County Clerk Chris Hollins of violating state election laws by preparing to send more than 2 million applications to voters “who do not qualify and have not requested to vote by mail,” according to Paxton.

So all these voters are real and the issue is they are not disabled and thus not eligible for mail in voting in Texas?  That is a stupid rule.  Mail-in voting should be eligible for anyone that wants it.

It's jaw dropping that libs are going to try to turn around the mental fitness issue away from Biden and towards Trump. Like, seriously recognize that there are some battles that make you look ridiculous.

Not only that, the video chosen here was edited to cut out the topic at hand that was likely mentioned before this clip started. This is a comical attempt to distract from Biden’s many brain farts
