Vote-fraud worries

 

Gov. Rick Scott and his staff had better be ready on Nov. 6 and afterward with some fine-tuned plans to cope with the possible mess that the Republican-hired voter registration specialists, Strategic Allied Consulting, has left behind. (You know, those Republicans, the ones who are so worried about voter fraud.)

He, actually the poor poll workers, may be facing hundreds of irate would-be voters who made some change in their registration, but will suddenly find their addresses changed, probably in a way to make it very inconvenient for them to vote. Then there will be those who registered with the help of the kindly folk from Strategic whose party affiliation was marked as Democrat. Wonder where all those forms ended up?

It would be fun to watch, if it weren’t so sad.

    As a district coordinator for a tutoring company that received an ‘excellent’ rating from the Florida Department of Education (DOE) for the 10 years that we have been providing services in Florida, I must respond to the May 12 article Fight over money for tutoring went down to the wire.

  • DCF fails again

    Another innocent child has died because of the blatant incompetence of the Florida Department of Children & Families. The little arms of Rilya Wilson and Nubia Barahona have stretched out to embrace the latest victim of neglect, infant Bryan Osceola.

  • Larger type, please

    I am always proud of the Silver Knight nominees from Miami-Dade County. When the winners are printed in The Miami Herald, the categories, from art to world languages, can be easily read. But even with the best of bifocals, I need a high-power magnifier to read the students’ names. The Herald should print the names a little larger to honor these outstanding students more fully.
