Judge in Florida orders bilingual ballots

[pramaglia]

One of the requirements to become a US citizen is
that you must be able to read, write, and speak basic English.
One of the qualifications to vote is that you must be a United States citizen.
So how does a judge demand that ballots be printed in any language other than English?

They should print the ballots in English and Russian just to screw with the judge.

They should print the ballots in English and Russian just to screw with the judge.

Even better, no words in any language, just photos of the candidates, not even anything indicative of what party they belong to.

If you can't recognize a candidate from a photo, you probably don't know enough about them to vote for them.

Plus, the Dem voters would get it wrong half the time, and I bet the Republicans wouldn't.

How does the state allow this

The law says English and Spanish. I don’t agree with it either, but we’re here. Don’t know how we got here as fast as we did, but man it’s scary how fast things are pushing left.

The directive requires that the state's 67 counties make voting accessible to Spanish speakers by offering non-English ballots, sample ballots and voting material. The order came after a lawsuit was filed by several Latino and civil rights organizations, arguing that 32 counties were violating the Voting Rights Act because they had large Latino populations but didn't offer Spanish-language ballots to its voters.

Something a little bit off topic that I would like to share.

I find it interesting when sometimes I will come across something that I have had for a long time. Still with the instructions, and or, the original box that something came in. And the only text on the instructions or the box is in English.

I can remember the days before "press 1 for English."

The growing tyranny of the judicial branch. They are unelected and we’re never intended to wield the unchecked power they have acquired since congress refuses to do its job. This needs to be stopped.

This all could've been avoided decades ago by simply making English the official language of the US. Who's to blame? Why some of the very same people that are still in office today and are for open boarders.

It's the strangest thing -- for some reason, I keep seeing the word "king" whenever I read the word "judge" these days. The context is just so similar.
