Mike Bloomberg Raises $16 Million to Pay Fines of Black, Hispanic Felons to Vote in Florid

Mike Bloomberg, the billionaire former mayor of New York City and failed Democratic presidential candidate, has raised $16 million to pay the fines of black and Hispanic felons — only — so that they can be eligible to vote in Florida this fall.
The Washington Post reported Tuesday:
Former New York Mayor Mike Bloomberg and his team have raised more than $16 million to pay the court fines and fees of nearly 32,000 Black and Hispanic Florida voters with felony convictions, an effort aimed at boosting turnout for Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden.
The money will go to fund a program organized by the Florida Rights Restoration Coalition to pay the fines, fees and restitution costs for former prisoners who are already registered to vote in Florida but barred by law from participating in the election because of those outstanding debts.

Sounds like this group should form a union and extort more money out of Little Mike for the vote.

Wow, it pays to be a black felon these days.

It’s why their elitism always makes me laugh. Without uneducated inner city folk, the Dems would be stuck with about three states.

In today’s version of Babylon Bee or real life....

You’ll never see a better example of buying votes.

I agree. It's tantamount to vote buying.

They can vote and hold up a precinct at the same time.

Also racism at its finest.

I mean, are we pretending the black vote hasn't effectively been for sale for decades?
What's the difference here besides timing of received monies?

I don't think it will be anywhere near enough to flop the state AND Florida towns get a bunch of money they never would have received

Florida should ban outside money to do this. Make it an in-state program only.

Another reason I'm happy I no longer vote alongside Democrats.

This should be illegal.
But in Oklahoma it is illegal to pay someone else's court fines or costs for them.

So criminals vote democrat?

DoJ should discuss with IRS if these are *gifts* which are taxable.
