Fewer voters in Florida

thinking

The state voter rolls show that we have few people registered to vote in Florida than we did three years ago. Why? In 2005, the state legislature passed a bill requiring that in odd-numbered years, voter rolls be purged of people who have skipped two straight statewide elections.

Hmmmm, who does this help the Republicans or the Democrats? Republicans, methinks.
