"Whites were actually twice as likely as blacks to be erroneously placed on the list." >>> I WOULD HOPE SO... CONSIDERING THAT WHITES ARE PROBABLY 80% OF THE POPULATION THERE! "the biggest problem with the felon list was not that it prevented eligible voters from casting ballots, but that it ended up allowing ineligible voters to cast a ballot."* According to the Palm Beach Post, more than 6,500 ineligible felons voted. >>> So what is WORSE? 80,000 people illegally denied the right to vote... or 6,500 people illegally allowed to vote? >>> Sounds like they are both pretty bad! >>> So, why the hell wasn't Harris drawn-and-quartered for shifting the database contract to a politically connected private firm, paying them FAR more than Florida have ever in it's entire history paid for an 'election scrub'... and then ORDERING THEM TO NOT VERIFY THE NAMES BEFORE STRIKING PEOPLE OFF THE ELECTION ROLLS (even after ChoicePoint wrote to Harris and TOLD HER that without verification the results would be grossly inaccurate)?
