Florida Gov. Rick Scott tells Newsmax he will staunchly resist efforts by the federal government and the Obama administration to halt his efforts to purge ineligible voters from the rolls in his state.

“This is not a partisan issue,” he declares in an exclusive interview. “I have not met one Republican, Democrat, or independent that thinks non-U.S. citizens should be voting in our races...http://www.newsmax.com/US/scott-purge-illegal-voters/2012/07/02/id/444248

You know, that remark is really obnoxious.... At least this Governor is TRYING to do something, which is more than I can say about many others.

I don't think the issue really is that no one wants "non-citizens" to vote. That is just a smokescreen statement.

What is going on is that the State of Florida is attempting to make it more difficult for voters who would tend more strongly to vote Democratic than Republican keep away from the polls. I can see this. Can't you ?

Aw c'mon, Richard! Try to react other than how the DNC tells you to.

Once again I must point to a truth:
"If you're against voter I.D., you're for voter fraud."

Most of you complain that "the government can't do anything right" .... a sampling of the names that the Flordia Board of Election wants to eliminate from the voter rolls .... indicate that MANY are legimate voters ...so why do you think that Florida can do this correctly .. by the time these voters are notified and re-certify their eligibity .... the November election will be over .... and that is what the Govenor wants .... also ... isn't Florida facing more important issues than voter fraud .... does anyone think that there are a sufficient number of people voting illegally to warrant the Governors efforts ... political to the core

Robert,

Surely you know better than to make that comment. Or are you just being difficult. No, Robert. By requiring ID from elderly people or people who don't speak much English. These are generally people who have voted before, but who will show up again only to find that NOW they now haven't got the type of ID required. These are people who tend to vote Democratic rather than Republican, so the more of them you can prevent from voting, the better chance Republican candidates have of winning.

Shame on you, Robert. I am sure you already knew the above. But also you should also know that voter fraud has NEVER been a serious problem.

Again, this is a smokescreen under which partisan politics is being practiced.

Richard, Proof Richard proof. Where is your proof. Why should we accept what you have to say as opposed to what Robert has to say. Robert makes a simple and irrefutable postulation. If you are not willing to ID yourself as a qualified voter, you should not vote. The requirements are simple. Hell, I need ID to borrow a book from the library or to cash a check for $10. Do you deem those requirements oppressive also? You accuse Robert of shameful chicanery and lies but offer not one shred of evidence to support your position. And what do you accept as "voter fraud has NEVER been a serious problem". My definition is 1 single fraudulent vote is too many. Will we ever come to that point? Of course not. But it is irresponsible to not even try to eliminate it. ALL VOTER FRAUD IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM. Who in hell are you to set the parameter for what constitutes serious?
