Saw this comment in response to an article about the Florida voter registration purge...

My father was a staunch conservative and voted straight line Republican until the day he died, now he votes Democrat.

Conservative to the Core!
Gun control means never having to fire twice.
Social engineering, left OR right usually ends in a train wreck.

I see dead people...voting!

With balloting well under way in the general election, the Florida Sun Sentinel found more than 65,000 ineligible and duplicate voters on Florida's registration rolls. These included at least 600 dead people, 32,000 voters registered more than once and more than 33,000 convicted felons who by law, should not be allowed to cast ballots.

Nearly half of Florida's purged voters in Lee County

TALLAHASSEE — Of the 96 people purged from Florida voter rolls because they're in the country illegally, about half were in Lee County, a fact the county's supervisor of elections says does not mean she is on a crusade.

Florida's purging of voters has become the grist for lawsuits and late night comedy as the Republican controlled state has battled the Democratic Obama administration over how to go about removing ineligible voters. Adding nuance to the story: the state doesn't actually do the removals — that's done by independently-elected county supervisors of elections who don't necessarily answer to Tallahassee.

The state Division of Elections says that 43 of 96 voters found in the last couple of months to be illegally registered because they're not citizens were registered in Lee County.
