Garrett said that, had both felons pe ioned the governor to have their voting rights restored, "they likely would have gotten it."![]()
I, for one, am willing to accept one fraudulent vote... or at least not get all hissy-fitty about it.

So you are that stupid.
I will especially accept fraudulent votes that are detected and thrown out using regular current procedures.
so following yoni's logi..he would be ok with innocent people going to prison as long as we get most of the bad guys..
How is stating the obvious, that a disqualified valid voter is a de facto disqualified valid vote, any answer to the question of why you think voter fraud measures would result in disqualifying valid voters, and their votes, at all?
So now the big talking point being peddled by useful idiots like Yonivore is that Voter Fraud is a widespread epidemic as evidenced by one felon casting a vote on the technicality that she had not had her voting rights officially restored, and getting caught.
Sounds just like the apocalyptic nightmares from the Right about Mexican immigrants and closet Communists voting with the names of dead people. You guys were right all along!
i see dead voters..lol
No, I reject the premise -- article of faith, on the left -- that voter fraud prevention measures would result in disqualifying valid voters.
There's that word, "widespread," again.
Voter fraud does not have to be either widespread or pervasive to taint an election.
LBJ did it with just two counties in 1960. Florida, in 2000, would have been flipped with under 200 votes.
That same group was mailing registration forms to dead people and animals, as well.
let's say you share the same name as felon... florida removes you and you can't vote... is that ok?
So what yoni really wants is a voter reinstatement education campaign for convicted felons.
That would have eliminated all the massive vote fraud he has cataloged here.
Did that happen?
Well , that would suck if those dead people and animals ever figured out how to fill out the forms...
That's 200 times the evidence you have found so far.
Because no one, like a felon, would fill out the form and pretend to be the dead person -- in order to vote fraudulently.
How many votes were cast in the 2008 Presidential election?
And get caught, get his vote disqualified and get prosecuted for voter fraud... not hard at all, apparently.
What would be that felon's motivation? In this case, all the felon wanted to do was, you know, vote as her non-dead self. And all she had to do was ask the governor pretty please.
How many times has this happened?
Just how irresistible do you think the urge to vote is among convicted felons anyway? Do you think they all sit around burdening themselves with the regret that they can never go stand in line to vote like 2% of everyone else? Do you think that desire is so strong that they're constantly looking for some kind of loophole that will allow them to taste the sweet sweet nectar of the Right to Vote again?
Who knows of what felons dream?
But, fighting efforts to remove them from the voter rolls seems to suggest those doing the fighting believe enough of them will vote illegally to make a difference.
The idea that there are scores of felons trying to get around voting laws to cast ballots could only seem feasible to someone who is completely obsessed with partisan gamesmanship. Just because voting every couple of years and keeping score is the only thing that gets you out of bed in the morning doesn't mean everyone else in the world, including felons, gives that much of a .
Then why are Democrats so obsessed with stopping measures designed to ensure felons and other unqualified persons don't vote?
