One typo and you lose your right to vote?

Only a REPUBLICAN ADMINISTRATION would do this.

THIS is NOT A GOOD FAITH EFFORT TO AVOID FRAUD.

THIS IS A WAY TO SUPPRESS VOTES OF LEGITIMATE AMERICAN VOTERS.

Ballot requests and registrations are re-typed by clerks. Signatures are never "exactly" the same!

We need biometric ids to cut down on matching errors. Until we do, "anti-fraud" really equals "voter suppression".

There is no way that voters should be required to share their social security number at election polls. That should be illegal, federally. I think voters should file a suit against Florida to prevent them from using SS numbers. We don''t have enough problems with idenity theft without this????
