RNC Moves To Intervene In FL Voter Registration Suit

Florida Politics reports: 

The Republican National Committee (RNC) and Republican Party of Florida (RPOF) have filed a motion to intervene in a lawsuit over a state law requiring that a voter’s name and Social Security number match the info on their government ID.

Civil rights groups, collectively represented by nonprofit plaintiff Florida Rising Together, sued Secretary of State Cord Byrd, Attorney General Ashley Moody and Supervisors of Elections in Broward, Duval, Miami-Dade and Orange counties last month.

In their suit, they alleged that more than 43,000 people in Florida have been denied their right to vote since 2018 because the identifying information they used to register was not an exact match for information on a state or federal database.
