The effort apparently is focusing on voterswho have been victims of a confusing process— one DeSantis personally complicated. In 2018, Floridians voted widely in favor of a state constitutional amendment that allows people convicted of felonies to vote, but not people convicted of murder and sexual offenses. DeSantis was elected governor that year, and in 2019 he
signed into lawa bill requiring felons to pay all outstanding court fees, fines and restitution to victims before they are able to legally vote.

In 2018, Floridians voted widely in favor of a state constitutional amendment that allows people convicted of felonies to vote, but not people convicted of murder and sexual offenses. In 2018, Florida voters passed a referendum — to the chagrin of Republicans like DeSantis — that restored the vote to people convicted of felonies who’d served their time.

DeSantis was elected governor that year, and in 2019 he signed into law a bill requiring felons to pay all outstanding court fees, fines and restitution to victims before they are able to legally vote. That made an already complex process even hairier for some people, who eagerly took advantage of the felony enfranchisement law without knowing their eligibility status for certain. Nathan Hart, 49, previously convicted of a sex crime, was pretty sure he was ineligible to vote, but in March 2020, a functionary at the motor-vehicles office told him to register anyway.

The woman in the video above, for example, is 55-year-old Romona Oliver, who served nearly two decades for second-degree murder, according to the Tampa Bay Times." In a joint statement Friday, the Legal Defense Fund, Brennan Center for Justice, American Civil Liberties Union and ACLU of Florida applauded the Miami-Dade judge's decision. After her release, she reportedly registered to vote in early 2020, wanting to immediately take advantage of the voter enfranchisement law — and later received a voter ID card from the state.

“‘If they don’t, then you can’t. As The Washington Post reported , it’s a common story among people ensnared in DeSantis’ voter crackdown. Perhaps unsurprisingly for those familiar with voter suppression tactics, 12 of the 19 people initially arrested by DeSantis’ vote police in August were registered as Democrats and at least 13 of them are Black, the Tampa Bay Times reported.

The Office of Election Crimes has arrested 19 people so far, which has provided DeSantis with some great political theater to burnish his presidential ambitions with Fox-News-watching couch potatoes. This evokes memories of revanchist white politicians in the South after the Civil War.

Florida has . But in targeting voters who in the past were convicted of the worst crimes of murder or sex offenses — even if, as their lawyers note, many have spent years rebuilding their lives, with stable jobs and families — DeSantis is counting on support from people who will having little sympathy for those arrested.
