I worked on the Bush campaign in 2000 and was chief strategist in 2004. Not counting all the votes in Florida in 2000 was a grave injustice and caused many to question the legitimacy of Bush election. Let us not repeat that injustice in FL and AZ this year. Count all the votes.

Republicans illegally purged 12,000 people from voter rolls in Florida 2000, which made George W. Bush president (in addition to SCOTUS). Then Rick Scott used felon disenfranchisement law to preserve GOP power in state https://t.co/B0osjjO4Ab

Florida GOP's history of voter suppression:
Illegally purged 12,000 voters in 2000
7 hour lines in 2012
Shut down voter registration drives
Disenfranchised 1.6 million ex-felons
15k absentee ballots rejected in 2018
We know which party trying to steal election

More than 50 lawsuits were filed in the month following the 2000 presidential election. Likewise, in the week since the 2018 midterms, the number has quickly multiplied. https://t.co/giHvJFiEMj
