Hispanic, Democratic and independent-minded voters are the most likely to be targeted in a state hunt to remove thousands of noncitizens from Floridas voting rolls, a Miami Herald computer analysis of elections records has found.
Whites and Republicans are disproportionately the least-likely to face the threat of removal, the analysis of a list of more than 2,600 potential noncitizens shows. The list was first compiled by the state and furnished to county election supervisors and then The Herald.
The numbers change by the day. The states Division of Elections says it initially identified roughly 180,000 potential noncitizens by performing a search of a computer database that doesnt have the most-updated information.
About 58 percent of those identified as potential noncitizens are Hispanics, Floridas largest ethnic immigrant population. They make up just 13 percent of the overall 11.3 million active registered voters.
Those who have been flagged as potential noncitizens by the state are being contacted by county election supervisors. Many legitimate voters arent happy with what they see as a needless hassle from a government using bad data.
Im upset, because if someone is an American citizen, it is his right to vote. How can they be asking for this? said Juan Artabe, a 41-year-old Democrat from Cuba who said he became a citizen in 2009.
Very poor job by the elections department, Artabe said. He said he was contacted last week by the Miami-Dade elections office and sent in a copy of his citizenship papers so he wasnt struck from the voter rolls.
About two-thirds of the potential noncitizen matches so far have been in Miami-Dade, the states largest county with the biggest immigrant population.

Why are dem constituents most likely to be involved in voter fraud? Because they have community organizers who engage in it.
Are there any community organizers in white communities, with phoney-baloney registration operations and busses that shuttle people to the polls?
This assembly-line fraud has got to stop. Retail fraud might happen despite all efforts, but this wholesale fraud threatens the nation.
These guys are pulling Hugo Chavez stuff.
Did a Cuban-Cambodian found this country?
How many illegal Swedes are here vs. Mexicans?
I know, it’s profiling.
Never profiling for Affirmative Action hiring, college entry or job promotion...but look for a Muzzie at the airport or Paco at the voting station and you are a RACIST PROFILER.
This reminds me of what Rush said, if God decided to end the world tomorrow, the liberals would say, women and minorities hardest hit. The same applies here.
Don't these idiot journalists realize that people get on the list due to likelihood of being illegally registered, not by skin color?
Send this Communist back to Cuber.
The bigger question in Juan’s case is when did he start voting?
