Biden AG Garland May Bring Lawsuits Against Florida Election Laws

According to major polls including Pew Research and Gallup, around 81% of Americans support the idea of photo identification being used when somebody goes to vote.

Under Gov. DeSantis, Florida’s new elections laws enhance that process and increase penalties for those that ballot harvest. To guard against fraud, the laws require existing voter registration record to be updated to ensures each voter’s identity and eligibility. DeSantis also wants local elections supervisors to clean up voter rolls annually, removing dead people from the voting rolls.

But U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland, appointed by President Joe Biden in 2021, has vowed to go after voter I.D. laws in states such Florida.

Currently, 36 states currently have some form of a voter ID law.
