The Justice Department sent a letter to Florida Secretary of State Ken Detzner Thursday evening demanding the state cease purging its voting rolls because the process it is using has not been cleared under the Voting Rights Act, TPM has learned.
DOJ also said that Floridas voter roll purge violated the National Voter Registration Act, which stipulates that voter roll maintenance should have ceased 90 days before an election, which given Floridas August 14 primary, meant May 16.
Five of Floridas counties are subject to the Voting Rights Act, but the state never sought permission from either the Justice Department or a federal court to implement its voter roll maintenance program. Florida officials said they were trying to remove non-citizens from the voting rolls, but a flawed process led to several U.S. citizens being asked to prove their citizenship status or be kicked off the rolls.
Six members of Congress wrote Gov. Rick Scott earlier this week demanding that he stop purging the states voting rolls since the process improperly flagged numerous individuals who were eligible to vote.
To enable us to meet our responsibility to enforce federal law, please inform us by June 6 of the action that the State of Florida plans to take concerning the matters discussed in this letter, Christian Herren, chief of the voting section of DOJs Civil Rights Division, wrote in the letter obtained by TPM. Specifically, please advise whether the State intends to cease the practice discussed above, so that the Department can determine what futher action, if any, is necessary.
Meet the Radical DOJ Lawyer Forcing Florida to Keep Foreigners on the Voter Rolls: "Elise Shore" is just one of her identities---and she's dressed like she has a night job on the DC streets.
THIS IS HER STORY----She came to the Voting Section by way of the Southern Coalition for Social Justice, where she worked as a legal consultant focusing on voting rights, immigrant rights, and other civil rights and social justice issues ........ and worked using several identities to pocket multiple paychecks.
Under one identity---as "Ms. Shore" --- she contributed $1000 to Barack Obamas presidential campaign.
Before joining the Southern Coalition for Social Justice, Shore worked for more than two years as a Regional Counsel for MALDEF [Mexican American Legal Defense and Education Fund] as an outspoken critic of Georgias voter ID law and well as its proof of citizenship requirements for voter registration (which, incidentally, have been found to be non-discriminatory by a federal court).
She's said how heartened she was that the US Civil Rights Division had objected to the registration law under Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act. But her joy must have been fleeting: the Division later capitulated and withdrew its objection after Georgia filed a federal declaratory judgment action.
It will be interesting to see if "Shore" can calm her salivating Third World taskmasters---and put her politics to the side in her role as the US Voting Sections point of contact for all redistricting submissions in the state of Florida.
NOTE WELL "Ms. Shore" wasnt able to set aside her obeisance to the third World----and her MALDEF-style radicalism-----even after she started working for the US govt, and got paid by the taxpayers of the United States.
THE PUTATIVE "VOTERS" ARE USING MULTIPLE IDENTITIES. There's loads of parasitic ID brokers selling fake ID's to "impoverished" border violators for several thousand dollars each. Juan Madrigal--the Wash/state rapist--- had some 30 identities. Another illegal used multiple identities to bilk UI of several million dollars. Two illegals---that equals some 40-50 votes (/snix)
=========================================================
REFERENCE The phony "just here for a better life" crowd who freely violate our borders and "do the jobs Americans won't do" have more criminal enterprises than you can shake a stick at.
<><>ICE's "documents and benefits fraud task force" found a common practice among "impoverished" illegals is to buy several faked identities for several thousand dollars each----the illegal then votes and rides the US gravy train under several names.
<><> Jose Madrigal---the Washington state rapist---had some 30 identities. And probably votes and collects US benefits under every single identity.
<><>June 26, 2010 An illegal using multiple identities was sentenced to prison and ordered to pay back $3 million in fraudulently obtained unemployment compensation. Manuel Mejia Ordonez, got eight years for conspiracy to commit mail fraud........and identity theft.
<><> Hilderberto Salinas sold state drivers' licenses issued out of the states Motor Vehicle Agency in NJ to illegals with multiple identities who did not have the necessary id's....among 40 people who participated in the widespread ring. "Impoverished" illegals paid $2,500 to $7,000 apiece for the licenses.
<><> July 21, 2006----NJ BERGEN RECORD---Pelcastre brothers, Angel and Jorge, Dallas, Texas, were a walking threat to US national security, expert document forgers who, for a few thousand dollars, could give anyone a new identity, NJ L/E authorities said. The Texas brothers were a "one-stop shop" for a myriad of fake US documents, including birth certificates, Social Security cards, driver's licenses----for any state in the US------ passports and resident alien cards, said state police.
The Texas brothers turned a NJ hotel room into a business office and were readying a massive cache of fake Social Security cards for delivery to a local NJ identity broker. Officers happened upon two cars bearing Texas plates in a NJ hotel parking lot. The Texas brothers were followed to a NJ office supply store nearby where they purchased computer supplies. Officers then followed the Texans to a NJ storage facility in Secaucus, NJ, where the Texans loaded several boxes into a car. One of them stood lookout.
After a search, police recovered laminating sheets with built-in security features, pages of blank documents waiting for fake names and information, finished documents, computers and software to create the fake IDs.
All told, the haul was worth about $500,000 on the street when sold to "impoverished illegals." Police also recovered $6,000 in cash, which was the first payment from a NJ fake document broker for a shipment of 500 phony Social Security cards. ####
<><> US Dept of the Treasury Says Illegal Aliens Collecting Billions in Tax Credits According to the US Dept of Treasurys Inspector General, more than $4.2 billion in additional child credits were paid out in 2010 to illegal immigrants. In 2005, the pay outs totaled $924 million. This program allows low income earners to claim a $1,000 per child credit. $20 billion EITC is estimated to have been paid out to these cunning "impoverished" illegals. Most of them are collecting over and over again-----using multiple identities-----falsifying official apps---claiming children they do not have and/or falsely stating kids are back in their homelands.
REFERENCE March 8, 2012 KENNER, La. -- Kenner police arrested illegal Marvin Baca who sold false W-2 forms to another illegal immigrant for $1,500. Baca sold fraudulent W-2 forms for $1,500 to other Hispanics here illegally.
Police said that on one of the forged W-2 forms had a SS no of a person living in Virginia. Police said illegal Hispanics purchase fictitious W-2 forms and file false tax returns with the government to receive EITC refunds. Baca was charged with one count of ID theft and two counts of forgery.
As I understand it, Holder claims that states can't remove voters from rolls 90 days or sooner from an election, according to that law, and maybe he is right, although it seems strange that you would not be able to do that if the voters were not legal.
The good news is that the general election is more than 90 days away, but I'll bet Holder will find a different excuse before then.
The Voting Rights Act reauthorized by Republican congress and GWB without changes in 2006. I suppose it was to get minority votes, guess what? It didn't work. I don't know if this applies or not but I do know that Republicans reauthorized it without reading it.
Florida has been requesting that the Federal government help them identify illegal voters using Federal data-bases but naturally the Federal government refuses to let them use their databases.
Can anyone be surprised when you have an undocumented p-Resident illegal alien sitting in the W.H. with his feet up on the desk in the Oval Office???
” The Voting Rights Act reauthorized by Republican congress and GWB without changes in 2006. I suppose it was to get minority votes, guess what? It didn’t work. I don’t know if this applies or not but I do know that Republicans reauthorized it without reading it. “
That figures.
