Florida Governor Ron DeSantis Blocks AG Garland’s Election Monitors From Entering Polling Locations By Cristina Laila Published November 8, 2022 at 11:00am Comment Share Tweet Gab Share Telegram Telegram Gettr Gettr P Share Share
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R) blocked Attorney General Merrick Garland’s election monitors from entering polling locations.
Biden’s corrupt Justice Department this week deployed federal goons to harass poll workers in 64 key battleground precincts in 24 states.
DeSantis pushed back and told the feds they are not welcome in Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach Counties.
“Earlier today, the Florida Department of State received copies of your letters to Miami-Dade and Broward Counties in which you seem to indicate that the Department of Justice will send monitors inside polling places in these counties,” the DeSantis Administration wrote in a letter to John Russ, Deputy Chief & Elections Coordinator.
“We also understand you sent a similar letter to Palm Beach County. But Department of Justice monitors are not permitted under Florida law. Section 102.031(3)(a) of the Florida Statutes lists the people who “may enter any polling room or polling place.” Department of Justice personnel are not included on the list. Even if they could qualify as “law enforcement” under section 102.031(3)(a)6. of the Florida Statutes, absent some evidence concerning the need for federal intrusion, or some federal statute that preempts Florida law, the presence of federal law enforcement inside polling places would be counterproductive and could potentially undermine confidence,” the letter read, according to the Floridian Press.

Getting it done in fla
How soon after the election can we get rid of Garland??
Like a boss
Testicles, excellent !
Ron Desantis has muy maximo grande huevos!
DeSantis is a boss. Lawless DOJ says it’s going to stack the deck in your election? Tell them they can’t come in and back it up with the LAW.
Based Ron isn’t going to get rolled.
You have the right to remain silent...
Hands behind your back.
Best Governor in America.
The GOP would do well following his lead.
When I went in to vote this morning, a person physically working the election process was wearing a Homeland Security Administration jacket.
I live in a city in Michigan with a population less than 50k
As should be.
And, hopefully, best president in the future. I love this guy.
DeSantis 2024.
Yes he is and he’s on the ballot and he’d be dumb not to challenge this.
Desactimonious taking action, while everyone else talks. Go FL.
DeSantis 2028. We need him here as governor to continue to protect Florida. I don’t think he will bail on Florida before his term is up.
Fed goons have no business “monitoring” any polling places in this country. They are up to no good. Good for DeSantis running them off. They should be barred from entering any other polling locations in the country.
