League of Women Voters of Florida files suit to overturn new election law
By NATHAN MAYBERG - | May 12, 2021
Gov. Ron DeSantis
The League of Women Voters of Florida has filed a lawsuit challenging election legislation signed into law last week by Gov. Ron DeSantis.
The legislation, which critics –including the League say could suppress voting, was supported by Lee County’s Republican delegation including Sen. Ray Rodrigues (R-Estero), Sen. Ben Albritton (R-Wauchula), Sen. Kathleen Passidomo (R-Naples), representatives Adam Botana (R-Bonita Springs), Spencer Roach (R-North Fort Myers), Jenna Persons-Mulicka (R-Fort Myers) and Mike Giallambardo (R-Cape Coral).
Rodrigues said the bill, known as SB-90, “makes it very difficult to cheat.” He said the legislation will create more safeguards for drop box locations. Previously, some counties did not guard drop boxes in the way the election law intended, he said.
