Miami-Dade Dems accuse Elections Supervisor of pro-GOP bias, trying to ‘steal’ local elections

Democrats and NPA (Not politically affiliated) voters made up the vast majority of Miami-Dade’s recent roll reductions.

Leaders of the Miami-Dade Democratic Party are accusing recently elected Supervisor of Elections Alina Garcia, a longtime Republican operative and former state lawmaker, of using her new post to tilt the county’s voter composition in her party’s favor.

They’re now diving into public records, they say, to determine whether — and to what extent — the Supervisor of Elections (SOE) Office has manipulated voter rolls since November.

More than a quarter-million Miami-Dade voters have been removed from the county’s active voter rolls in recent months, and Democratic and non-party affiliated voters (NPA) made up a disproportionate share of the reduction.

A side-by-side comparison of active voter numbers from February and those from July, after an off-year voter roll maintenance that occurred statewide, shows Miami-Dade shed a 106,435 Democratic and 105,183 NPA voters — 41% each of the net total 259,606-voter reduction — while removing just 47,988 Republicans (18% of the total) over the same period.

Sue Whitman-Helfgot, the Miami-Dade Democratic Party’s Finance Chair, said in a Saturday fundraising email that the party is now “investigating Garcia’s antics” and have a plan to “combat her attempt to steal the upcoming Miami mayoral election.”

“Our staff of hardworking volunteers has a state-of-the-art tech stack,” she said. “But they need deep material support so they can knock on thousands of doors, make even more phone calls, and run voter registration drives. All before the election this Fall.”

Miami-Dade’s red wave

Whitman-Helfgot’s email came nearly eight months after a seismic election shook Miami-Dade, a long-dependably blue county that has increasingly trended redder in recent cycles. The proverbial dam broke in November, when Miami-Dade voters sided with a GOP presidential nominee for the first time this century.

President Donald Trump outpaced then-Vice President Kamala Harris by 11.4 percentage points in Miami-Dade. The last Republican at the top of the ticket to take the county was George H.W. Bush in 1988, and he won by 11 points.

The effect trickled down, with the Miami-Dade GOP sweeping all five county constitutional office races — including the contest for SOE, which Garcia won with 56% of the vote — while not losing a single congressional or state legislative seat.

ROTFLMAO. Load the system with fraudulent Democrat registrations and then accuse fraud against anyone who removes them.

During the cacophony of the 2000 election, I found one Palm County precinct that had a 267% Democrat turnout for Gore.

More DemonRAT tantrums. Those worthless bass turds need to grow up. There is nothing on this planet more worthless than a retarded liberal. The maggots already have 21 million illegal alien invader voters. I don’t know what the hell they are crying about.

And we can't let that happen!

Stealing Elections Is Our Thing!

And blacks are arrested for violent crimes at higher rates than whites, so bias.

These demoncRATS have stolen elections for so long so when it’s their turn to be defensive they see stealing in everything because they didn’t win through their own stealing.
