Florida AG Refers Bloomberg To FBI For Criminal Investigation After He Pledged To Pay Felons’ Fines So They Can Vote In Apparent Attempt To Boost Biden
Daily Wire ^

Posted on 09/23/2020 3:21:07 PM PDT by ameribbean expat

Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody reportedly sent a letter to the FBI and Florida Department of Law Enforcement requesting a criminal investigation into a recent report that failed Democrat presidential candidate Michael Bloomberg, a billionaire, has raised more than $16 million to help convicted felons pay off their debts in an attempt to boost Democrat presidential nominee Joe Biden in the state.

“The letter said that Moody’s office had reviewed Bloomberg’s pledge and referred the matter to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement and the FBI for a criminal investigation,” CBS 12 reported. “Moody’s letter references Florida’s statute against paying for votes, referencing a Florida Department of State finding that said ‘even an otherwise innocuous offering of an incentive simply to vote can run afoul’ of state election law.”

Now all that needs to happen is for Fay Wray to be replaced at the top of the FIB. Then this can move forward. Soros is next.

Fat lot of good that will do with Wray still doing the DNC bidding.

If these punks are so confident that Biden can win against President Trump they wouldn’t have to resort to these things.

The sooner the better. Followed by Esper and Milley.

Soros is next.

Yes please. It’s been a long time since a true treason case resulted in Capitol punishment. The media would love it. Just do it!

Florida statute 104.061 Corruptly influencing voting.—
(2) No person shall directly or indirectly give or promise anything of value to another intending thereby to buy that person’s or another’s vote or to corruptly influence that person or another in casting his or her vote. Any person who violates this subsection is guilty of a felony of the third degree, punishable as provided in s. 775.082, s. 775.083, or s. 775.084.

The key word here is "intending." In his solicitation of funds for this initiative, Bloomberg was extremely clear in describing his intention here. It seems that Bloomberg may well be guilty of a 3rd-degree felony in Florida due to his blatant attempt to use his money to influence the Florida election.

Not sure yet about what the Federal statutes might say...

The FBI will just refuse to investigate just like they refuse to take action against Antifa.

Didn’t each one of us say for just a few seconds: “Why was I naive enough to be honest when those convicted thugs get free money for settlement of all their debts and I lie awake at night worried about mine?”

And then back to “I just obey the law and live by Biblical precepts and do the honest thing.”
