The world is not flat, Jagfan. Yes, undoubtedly some felons did vote. However, can you tell us how many non-felons were illegally denied the vote because their names were on the list?

Can you tell us how many states deny the vote to felons?(14) The rest restore the vote after parole is completed. Did you know it is illegal to deny the vote to a Florida citizen who completed parole for a felony in another state? Lots of those on the list. How many?

Did you know that the Florida legislature has steadily increased the number of crimes designated as felonies over the past ten years? That means the number of Florida citizens who are denied the vote--for life--is increasing dramatically and the average age is dropping.

Did you know Florida law provides for the right to vote to be restored if the state is petitioned after parole is completed? How many times has the state granted those petitions? Less than 50. Why? Because the state has written requirements that are so stringent as to make the chance of actual fulfillment virtually non-existent.

Do you know who Database Technologies is? Did you know the CEO contributed 6 figures to the Bush campaign? And then they claim no responsibility for the errors in their dragnet. What's going on here?
