Precisely. However, after making my Post 20, I decided to look up the law here:
(2)(A) A State shall complete, not later than 90 days prior to the date of a primary or general election for Federal office, any program the purpose of which is to systematically remove the names of ineligible voters from the official lists of eligible voters.
Unfortunately, it does look like the DOJ may have a point. The purge isn't "completed" as it says in the law, and the August 16th primary is a primary for Federal offices (to nominate the opponent of Sen. Bill Nelson, for one).
I guess I'll wait to hear Gov. Scott's response to see what the State's defense is.
OK, so have the purge not be in effect for the primary, but be in effect for the general. I think what the DOJ is going to try to argue is that the purge is too late for the primary, and the primary is less than 90 days before the general election, so you can't have it the day after the primary either.
