Is there something specific I should be asking my state legislator for? We already require picture ID and DeSantis does seem to have cleared up the mess in Broward/Miami-Dade.
At least switching to a paper only ballot and tightening up security around the chain of custody. There should be tests of the systems and audits afterwards with consequences in case something like Michigan's "irregularities" are found. Ideally, voting would be done on only one day. If they want to print the ballot and have the person fill it out at their home then hand it in with their picture id and voter registration checked so they don't have to wait in line, fine. No same-day registration. Voter rolls need to be cleaned regularly. There should be cooperation with other states to make sure there aren't any double dippers. You get the gist. A bigger issue in FL is that DeSantis is barely in control. When he loses control, those election officials that make the election fraud possible WILL be back in those positions and the people of Florida will be in the same boat as before. Something also needs to be done about how those elections officials conduct themselves and how they're put in. I can't tell you what can be done about that off the top of my head though, that's something you have to ask someone who actually knows about elections. Getting FL to go back to a paper ballot will be extremely hard since the republicans are quite "proud" of their "clean 2020 election" although any FL resident with a bit of savvy knows just how messed up and how close the Gillum situation was and that little has been done to stop that from happening next election. I am, honestly, a little surprised the democrats kept their head down in FL this election.
Based on how quickly shit went down in Florida this election I think they have fixed their issues and is a solid red state now.
No.
