As we learned in the case of the fake pipe bomb guy with the MAGA van, felons do vote in Florida, and for both parties.
There is no mechanism in place to prevent a felon from registering to vote, actually voting, and then having their vote counted. Did you have to submit to a police background check to vote? I didn't.
The threat of prosecution (which rarely happens) has been the only deterrent standing in the way of felons voting in Florida, or anywhere else.
The Supervisors of Elections in each county are supposed to monitor their voter rolls to prevent and or remove any felons that are found.
Some are better at it than others.
But even with this new law, a judge has to okay the registration.
Now, how many ex-convicts do you think will actually go thru that process, especially if it has court costs and lawyer cost involved?..................
