Elections officials told Rick Scott he was dead and couldn’t vote

[Zorro]

Gov. Rick Scott said today in a radio interview that he had been declared ineligible to vote in Collier County in 2006 because the local supervisor of elections said he was dead. Scott, who is leading a statewide purge of ineligible voters, had to cast a provisional ballot.

Here’s a full report from Gary Fineout of The Associated Press:

Florida Gov. Rick Scott knows what it’s like to be told that he’s dead and not registered to vote.

The Republican governor said in a radio interview Thursday that he was forced to cast a provisional ballot because election officials said he had been taken off the voter rolls.
