94,000 people -- over half of them African American --have been on a "scrub list" in Florida, which meant they were blocked from voting in the 2000 election. Remember, Al Gore lost by "537" votes. The thing is, most of them were legally allowed to vote and were prevented from voting by Katherine Harris, former Florida Secretary of State, and Jeb Bush, in a failed attempt to root out felons.
Instead, they blocked legal voters from casting ballots and having their voices heard. Well, certainly Florida would have made sure that all those people who could legally vote, would have their constitutional freedoms restored by this Nov. 5th to vote in the election, right? Wrong.
Florida won't get to it until the beginning of January 2003. McBride and Jeb Bush are dead even. According to Palast, perhaps as many as 91,000 should have their names taken off the "scrub list" and be legally permitted to vote this Tuesday, Nov. 5th. Something is rotten in the state of Florida. This weekend, BuzzFlash interviewed Greg Palast about this shocking revelation and the blatant ongoing assault on democracy. | | Reply To this Message

| Posted by: Oats95 | | The fact that these people were felons is reason for them not to vote. The Idea that they're innocent is based on nothing, and is totally subjective. Besides, if they (the florida citizens not allowed to vote) were allowed to vote, then we would see felons getting the vote all across the country, and that would put less incentive on democrats, who tend to get the felon vote, to lower the crime rate. Another thing is that allowing felons to vote would create a precedent for legislating from the bench. Also, the very slanderous nature of the articles making this claim makes one question (or should) it's crdibility. | | Reply To this Message

| Posted by: donin24 | | Wow people, complaining about something that happened three years ago? There are some problems there. No offence, but you people need to get over it. There isnothing that can be done now because there is no legitamate proof and it has been, agian, three years and everyone else I know is over it. If you don't like Bush then I suggest that you do something about it in the 2004 election when it comes around.  | | Reply To this Message

| Posted by: Rebel | | As a floridian. I will clearly state. That after investigation by offical not one shred of crediable evidence was brought foward to prove this occurance. Also since the natinol media got bored with us. I will say that the recount was finished , though un offical, and george w bush won. Besides this argument is so 2 years ago. Get over it already. And thank god al gore is not in office right now. You know what his answer to 9 11 was? Grow a beard and surrender. Be honest with you i almost feel sorry for pathetic al gore. Never wanted to be president really. Was a terrible politician who sweat at the hint of hard question. Have you ever seen al gore sweat like a pig, and he is suppose to be such a brilliant debater, but he acted like he wanted to crawl under the table. Leave gore alone. Your going to give him a stroke. He simply does not have the back bone for the highest office in the land. Besides the man lies so much he cant keep up with them " I invented the internet" Al gores platform was as follows . I am anti war pro war anti gun pro gun pro life pro choice. Let the man retire in peace lol | | Reply To this Message

the entire argument is that 91,000 of the 94,000 removed from voting were in fact not felons. trying reading the linked articles.

i would be very interested if you could provide some links regarding this investigation. i wouldn't want to be arguing something completely disproven, but i've never heard of any official investigation disproving what i'm saying before.

i'm not complaining or anything. i'm not american so it doesn't even affect me that much. but what i was pointing out are issues which will recur in the future if they are not addressed, which is why i think it should remain a concern. even if you're all republicans and were happy with the outcome surely you still value democracy?

| Posted by: prbasta | | If we would block illegal immigration into the South then many of these problems wouldn't arise. There is a great probability that most of those thousands of people we in fact not elligible to vote. But I admit to not knowing much about the subject...I stopped worrying about that two years ago and started thanking God that Gore isn't in the Presidency. | | Reply To this Message

| Posted by: dave gfn | | Yo Mastermind, I don't know where to begin. Lets start with the immediate aftermath of election day. Can you tell me why Al Gore and his people never breathed one word of this story? Here you have a perfectly good excuse for a statewide re-vote, and Gore wouldn't touch it. The story was out at the time. Even Micheal Moore mentions this in his book (look it up Stupid White Men Ch. 1). If it were true, no sensible person could argue against a statewide re-vote. They could have exposed and buried the republicans for good. There are only two reasons why the Democrats didn't run with this story; 1) It was a bogus story, 2) They were complicit in removing the voters(I have seen that suggested on the net). Immediately after the election, the media couldn't find one person to stick in front of a camera and say, "I tried to vote, I couldn't vote!" I saw a half-dozen morons say they couldn't figure out the butterfly ballot. Why? The word got out that the butterfly ballot was confusing. The story about 90,000 voters not being able to vote hadn't got out yet( but came out shortly thereafter) . To this day, the mainstream press has wanted very little to do with this story. Why? Good question. Not even the black leadership has made an effort to force the mainstream press to put this story in the limelight. Wouldn't Al Sharpton make an effort if the story had any merit? In the mainstream press, the black leadership never brings up this story. Surely you can't suggest they are covering it up? Speaking of Florida blacks. A couple of days after the election I was watching C-span. It was a radio station with a black host with what sounded like all black people calling in. The people calling in were making all kinds of allegations. Some of these couldn't possibly have been true. Out of all of the claims, not one of the black callers claimed to have been denied a chance to vote. Interesting. There is a massive effort to convince blacks that they got screwed. In your article, along with Micheal Moore's book, you say that just over 50% of the 91,000 were black. It's always the blacks that are emphasized. What about everybody else. This omission proves the people who push this story have political motives. They show no concern for the non-blacks, because it doesn't serve their political motives. The intent is to imply that it is 91,000 blacks that got screwed. Moore mentions blacks about 12 times in his first chapter. The emphasis on the blacks is done to incite blacks and others to do something about it. It is also done to pound in Republican racial stereotypes. The motive is to deliver payback to the racist republicans in 2004. Every time I read this voter rolls story the number of "disenfranchised" goes up. First it was 26,000. Then it was 54,000. Now its 91,000. It just gets better with time. Just because you can read about this story on 22,000 websites doesn't make it true. Has anybody read that these 10's of thousands of voters were not returned to the rolls before the 2002 election? I have read that. Not one peep from the media. Gee, that doesn't make a lot of sense. Very few Americans would think removing 91,000 legitimate voters from the rolls would be acceptable(Democrats, Republicans or anybody else). Why in the heck wouldn't they use this against the Republicans? Because it is a bogus story. According to you, Gore had this perfectly good argument he could have used. Instead, he opted for the confusing butterfly ballot, we need a three county recount, " I won" defense. This is just one of the arguments that has mushroomed out of control since 2000. The "Bush stole the election" arguments grow more and more each year. Why? Because they had no argument at the time. They had to make people think he stole the election, so they invented all of this ammo for there side. It had to be so elaborate, because in 2000 they had nothing. Clock winding down...Jordan shoots a fade-a-way jumper for the game...Boooyah! | | Reply To this Message

| Posted by: whisperpoint | | Elections officials remove ballots from the count, not just counts for a single office. Whether GW Bush or Al Gore won the election is not the relevant issue. 94,000 votes is a drop in the bucket for President. 94,000 votes in state and local elections could make a huge difference for the people in a state. The election was so close that it came down to a single state, so big deal who won the presidential election. If the Florida elections were messed with to effect the presidential race what it really effected was state and local elections where important life effecting decisions get made. | | Reply To this Message
