And it will receive cogent judicial review, instead of incoherent Leftist dismissal, when it goes to the FL Supremes.

Such to stop with just ex-felons — or to become the modern version of the poll tax?

Some federal judge will strike down the provision, whether by calling it a poll tax, or from noting that black felons are disproportionately impacted.

"Won’t pass court scrutiny.
Could be interpreted as a poll tax."

Yeah, if you left out the felon part, could they pass a law so that anyone in debt can't vote?

Bring back debtors prison. /s
