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 Moodys office had reviewed Bloombergs pledge and referred the matter to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement and the FBI for a criminal investigation, CBS 12 reported. Moodys letter references Floridas 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.

It is a violation of federal law, not state.
The article clearly states its a Florida election law.

I certainly hope they are NOT stupid enough to think the FBI will do ANYTHING about it!, GEEZE what the hell does it take for people to realize the FBI are USELESS!!
How is that relevant? How is Bloomberg going to make sure that they vote for Biden/Democrats? He may well want it, but there’s no established quid pro quo in place.
Trump & Barr should ORDER this done!
It’ s time to really out the banner down on all these shitheads doing whatever they damn well please .
Especially this little prick Bloomberg
It’s time to separate this creep from his money . Or how about a nice long boat ride in the Florida Keys? I hear the tarpon fishing is great down there, this time of year.
The FBI will just refuse to investigate just like they refuse to take action against Antifa.
Yes, and the FBI stinks to high heaven. Do agents wear differently colored ear buds to tell us “who is pro-truth at all costs” vs “Ah, if we can keep it all out of control, perhaps the Dims will win and we will makes lots more money killing off the stupid Right wing groups?”
I wonder what would happen to me or the likes of me if we took the Antifa matter into our own hands?
Again, the key is "intent." By stating clearly that his expectation is that 95% of these black voters will vote for Biden, his intent is clear. At least that's the explanation I've heard...
I'm not a lawyer, so there's that... :)
