Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has announced charges against people he accused of voting despite disqualifying felony convictions, suggesting county officials are at fault. It's the state's responsibility to vet voter registrations.

In this Oct. 26, 2020, file photo an election worker sorts vote-by-mail ballots at the Miami-Dade County Board of Elections in Doral, Fla. Floridians in 2018 voted to amend the state’s constitution and allow certain felons to regain their right to vote after leaving prison.

Some felons say they didn’t know they were ineligible to vote. DeSantis has suggested that county officials didn’t do their jobs and allowed felons to vote. Voting rights advocates say it’s state officials who are failing to verify eligibility. Some of the people arrested say they thought they could register to vote and participate in elections. "I don’t really understand, how did I commit fraud?" Leo Grant Jr., a 55-year-old Palm Beach County resident told thethat local county officials are at fault, arguing that it’s their responsibility "to ensure that those voting roles are accurate."Meanwhile, voting rights advocates say state officials are the ones who are in the wrong.

You guys are liberal trash. FYI, I fact checked my own statement and it came back as Freaking TRUE!!!

Why isn't he in the slammer for mass kidnapping?

He still obsessed with voter fraud? Its not there.

DeathSantis should be arrested for using state funds to fly immigrants from TX to Martha vineyard. Florida doesn’t have immigrants from Mexico, Venezuela, or any Latin countries!

And when nobody can confirm whether you do or don’t have any outstanding obligations, that’s VoterSuppression
