Republican Florida Gov. Rick Scott on Tuesday declared that the debate about his state's effort to purge thousands of voters "is over" because over 50 non-citizen voters were proof that that the process needed to go forward.

1. I get the feeling he was looking in Albania for some reason. n/t

[WillyT]

2. 50 !!! Are U Kidding Me... 50 !!!

We're fucking under siege !!!

[Woody Woodpecker]

3. 50 out of 180,000 purge?

That's under 1%.

Not even close, Prick Snott.

[oxymoron]

4. Beyond belief (nt)

[markpkessinger]

5. 50 voters ouf of 11,297,945 registered voters in Florida . . .

. . . a whopping 4.4 ten thousandths of one percent! Yup, that sure is a problem alright . . .

18. statistically insignificant. n/t

[sadbear]

6. 50 votes may make a difference in Florida

More than 50 will definitely make a difference.

[gkhouston]

7. 50? Sounds like a busload.

Wonder where Crossroads GPS got them.

[spanone]

8. and how much did that cost the taxpayers?

hey rick, i don't think the feds take your word that it's 'over'.

they don't work for you.

[Initech]

9. Move along nothing to see here.

[demgrrrll]

10. Somone on Current TV said that at least some of those 50 people identified state they never voted.

The Gov may be shading the truth a bit. Color me shocked.

[randome]

11. So if they found them using means already at their disposal...this means what?

And how many legitimate voters were thrown off the rolls in the process?

[Baitball Blogger]

12. Completely misses the point.

If you're disenfranchising thousands of valid voters to get to one invalid voter, something is wrong with your process. Especially when the number of disenfranchised valid voters are proportionally Democratic.

13. Governor Wallace.

[jeff47]

14. So where's the prosecutions, Governor?

You found them....how come there have been 0 arrests and 0 prosecutions?

[Kalidurga]

15. I am so glad I don't have to stand on my head...

I am not 20 anymore...I think he is lying. I think that is what he does most his waking hours and pretty much all his talking hours. Might have believed him if he had said 27. But, he has so little imagination he can't even think up an odd number.

[DirkGently]

16. Scott apparently ran for one reason: to infiltrate gov't in order to hurt people.

[kentuck]

17. I have an idea !

Why not take those 50 people off the voting rolls and if you find more, take them off also. How about that? Sound fair?

Good job! Now get out there and do your job and find all those folks that are trying to vote illegally. OK?

[ProfessionalLeftist]

19. Disenfranchising several thousand (or more) of ELIGIBLE voters just . . .

. . . to get those 50 tells me the debate is FAR from over.

[Capt. Obvious]

20. James O'Keefe found them

21. When it comes to helping the poor, old and needy not a penny can be spared

from the public coffers. When it comes to totally unneeded inefficient GOP ideas that demonstrate they are nothing but an added layer of inconvenience on you to persuade you from doing what they don't want you to do no amount of government money is enough! Simple GOP economics.

[Proud Liberal Dem]

22. Well they found out that, what, 1% welfare recipients tested positive for drugs under their new law

so, clearly the debate about THAT is over as well, right?

[rustydog]

23. Rick Snott, I bet there are more of THESE in your state than 50 "illegal voters"

Comment on the arrest of Zimmerman's wife for perjury in the Trayvon Martin killing

"....Also something to think about with her being arrested, her HOME ADDRESS where she has been hiding from the public is now out in the open and the same nutcases that want to harm or kill her husband now know where to get her at."

Gov Scott, you have then of thousands of these ignorant, stupid Voters populating your state...Maybe you need an IQ test before one can qualify to vote.

24. None of those are CONFIRMED either...
