Holder, DOJ File Lawsuit Against Florida Despite Proof of Illegal Voters
The Attorney General Eric Holder isn’t going to allow his legal problems get in the way of Department of Justice officials announcing their intention to sue Florida over its so-called “purge” of the state’s voter rolls. The DOJ lawsuit announcement occurred the same day that Florida’s government announced it was suing a different federal agency over the same purge.
So far, Florida officials have identified over 180,000 registered voters who may not be U.S. citizens. Their list doesn’t include the names of deceased Floridians still listed as registered voters nor does it include convicted felons.
When Attorney General Eric Holder and the U.S. Justice Department demanded that the State of Florida — considered a vital electoral state — stop checking voter records in its probe of illegal voter registrations, Democratic Party operatives swarmed broadcast media outlets and echoed the assertion that illegal voting is not a problem in the United States.
In a letter to top state officials, T. Christian Herren Jr. of the Justice Department’s Voting Section, said “the effort appeared to violate the 1965 Voting Rights Act, which protects minorities.” He claimed that episodes of voter fraud were isolated incidents.
