Dear Miss Moody and Staff;
Good morning. My name is ******** and I just spoke with Chris at your office. The reason I am contacting you today is because, like many Floridians, I feel that other states are violating the Constitution of the United States in their handling of the November 3rd election. In brief, the argument is this: Several states have sidestepped their own state legislatures and the Constitution to make drastic changes to election laws and rules - especially pertaining to mail-in ballots. This was done through executive actions instead of legislative ones.
Texas has now sued Georgia, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania for this very reason. I respectfully ask that you, as our Attorney General file a similar suit on behalf of the State of Florida.
From the filing to SCOTUS: Certain officials in the Defendant States presented the pandemic as the justification for ignoring state laws regarding absentee and mail-in voting. The Defendant States flooded their citizenry with tens of millions of ballot applications and ballots in derogation of statutory controls as to how they are lawfully received, evaluated, and counted. Whether well intentioned or not, these unconstitutional acts had the same uniform effect—they made the 2020 election less secure in the Defendant States. Those changes are inconsistent with relevant state laws and were made by non-legislative entities, without any consent by the state legislatures. The acts of these officials thus directly violated the Constitution.
…
This case presents a question of law: Did the Defendant States violate the Electors Clause by taking non-legislative actions to change the election rules that would govern the appointment of presidential electors? These non-legislative changes to the Defendant States’ election laws facilitated the casting and counting of ballots in violation of state law, which, in turn, violated the Electors Clause of Article II, Section 1, Clause 2 of the U.S. Constitution. By these unlawful acts, the Defendant States have not only tainted the integrity of their own citizens’ vote, but their actions have also debased the votes of citizens in Plaintiff State and other States that remained loyal to the Constitution.
Texas is asking the Supreme Court to order the states to allow their legislatures to appoint their electors. I feel that these are simple yet solid constitutional arguments and I feel it would be appropriate to file a similar suit on our behalf. Why do these states get to change the rules while the rest of us played by them?
Florida has 29 Electoral Votes in this game. That's significant. We want to submit our very valuable EC votes to a lawful and fair election, not just toss them into the abyss of a beclouded outcome caused by other states.
