31,000 FLORIDA FELONS HAVE HAD THEIR VOTES FOR BIDEN BOUGHT BY BLOOMBERG

Billionaire Mike Bloomberg has paid off $20million in debt for more than 31,000 felons in Florida so that they can vote in the state where just 537 votes decided the presidential election in 2000. 

The former Democratic presidential candidate stepped in to help felons who have completed their prison sentences so they can vote on November 3. 

Bloomberg, who is worth more than $50billion, raised more than $20million to assist in his endeavor while also pledging $100million to help Joe Biden win Florida. 

'We know to win Florida we will need to persuade, motivate and add new votes to the Biden column. This means we need to explore all avenues for finding the needed votes when so many votes are already determined,' Bloomberg said in a written statement. 

The move comes just days after Florida Gov Ron DeSantis won a court victory to keep felons from voting until they've paid off fines, restitution and court fees.

SO, IS BLOOMIE BREAKING THE LAW ?

by Bob Walsh

Michael Bloomberg, former commie billionaire mayor of New York, proposes to pay the fines of several tens of thousands of ex-convicts in Florida to make them eligible to vote.  In Florida ex-cons can vote as long as they have TOTALLY CLEARED whatever obligation they owe the people.  This includes fees-fines-penalties.  The idea is that ex-cons as a group tend to vote democrat and Bloomie will thereby enable several tens of thousands of anti-Trump votes to be cast in the battle-ground state of Florida.

It is a legit question as to whether or not his proposal is legal.  It is illegal to flat-out PAY a person to vote.  Bloomberg would not technically be doing that.  He would be settling their accounts so that that person could vote if they chose to do so, for whoever they choose.

I am not a lawyer.  Even if I was I wouldn't admit to it.  My opinion, for what that opinion might be worth to you, is that Bloomberg's proposal is legal.  

By the way, the last legitimate poll I saw specifically of ex-cons pegged them at slightly more than 85% Democrat.  That was roughly ten years ago.
