Voter Purge, Minority Voting Rights Flashpoints Of New Showdown In Florida:Regardless of what party wins, the die is always set against us (the Black people in America).

GREETINGS,

THIS POLITICAL ENVIRONMENT IS ONE OF THE MOST CRUCIAL IN THE HISTORY OF MODERN BABYLON/ AMERICA. THE FUTURE OF AMERICA IS AT STAKE….” This election is one of the most serious in the history of American government, because either party that seeks the office of presidency is faced with the problem of saving the lives of the people of America. If the present party (Democratic) remains in office, you know the answer. If the Republican party takes over, you should know the answer. There will be a lull before the storm. The storm can be delayed and every hour and day that it can be delayed is to your benefit. “–pg.37(TFOA)

WE MUST REALIZE THAT…”  The Black vote could be cast or not cast. The white citizens of the government are going to win and continue to rule anyway. “–pg.36(TFOA)

WE REFUSE TO ACCEPT THIS BECAUSE THE WHITE MAN HAS MADE YOU(THE SO-CALLED NEGRO) PROUD, BUT HE CAN CHANGE HIS RULES WHENEVER IT SUITS HIM….” There is much talk of this man and that man (who shall the vote of the people put in the White House for the next four years?) How much good have the two parties (Republican and Democrat) done for us for the last century in the way of freedom, justice, and equality? Regardless of what party wins, the die is always set against us (the Black people in America). “–pg.36(TFOA)

CAN’T YOU SEE THIS? HOW CAN YOU NOT SEE THIS?

Voter Purge, Minority Voting Rights Flashpoints Of New Showdown In Florida

A lone voter casts a ballot in a downtown Miami condo complex, Tuesday, Jan. 31, 2012, during Florida’s presidential primary.

Florida officials made it clear Friday that the state will continue to purge as many as 182,000 suspected noncitizens from the state’s voter rolls — despite a coalition’s call to stop the process or prepare for court.

In the last three weeks alone, the Florida secretary of state’s office has identified and started to purge what it says are at least 50,000 dead voters from the state’s rolls and stripped out about 7,000 convicted felons. Officials at the same time are defending a more controversial plan to remove as many as 182,000 suspected noncitizens from the state’s voter rolls.

“Florida has a very shameful history of purging minority voters based on false information before presidential elections,” said  Katherine Culliton-Gonzalez, director of voter protection projects for the Advancement Project, a Washington, D.C.-based nonprofit that works to protect voter rights.

The Advancement Project is one of the five organizations in the coalition that warned Florida last week to discontinue plans to purge alleged noncitizens from the state’s voter rolls. It also called on the Department of Justice to temporarily halt the purge and investigate the state’s actions.

“What’s happening now, is not only illegal but it’s inaccurate, Culliton-Gonzalez said. “There are actual citizens on these lists. So, what’s happening is completely counter to the fundamental principals of our democracy.”

Florida often grabs national attention because the state is home to 11.3 million voters and wields 29 electoral votes, but the apparent showdown in the state is part of a broader battle over voting rights and participation leading up to the 2012 presidential election. Since last year, nearly three dozen Republican-controlled state legislatures have considered or passed laws creating new photo ID requirements for voters. Some also shortened early-voting periods, restricted early voting sites in churches and other locations where many minority voters typically cast ballots, and curtailed organizations that register voters. While some of the changes have gone into effect, many remain on hold pending court decisions.

Early this year, Florida Secretary of State Ken Detzner’s staff worked with the state’s Department of Motor Vehicles to identify  nearly 3,000 alleged noncitizens who also are registered to vote, said Chris Cate, Detzner’s spokesman. The voters in question were not citizens at the time they applied for a Florida driver’s license.

However, many people become citizens between scheduled license renewals, voting-rights advocates say…..MORE HERE
