Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has signed a sweeping voting overhaul bill that establishes a new election police force — giving his administration a new way to probe election crimes
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on Monday signed a sweeping voting overhaul bill that establishes a new election police force -- giving his administration a new way to probe election crimes.
With the GOP governor's signature, Florida has become one of the first states in the country with a unit focused on election fraud, an exceedingly rare problem that has become an animating issue for some Republican voters following former President Donald Trump's 2020 loss."I don't think there is any other place in the country where you should have more confidence that your vote counts than in the state of Florida," DeSantis said at a news conference before signing the law.
