Most everything has an expiration date, but one thing you may not have expected to expire was your vote-by-mail ballot.

‘If you can’t win, cheat”

As much as I abhor everything about DeSantis and FL politics in general, I have a hard time believing this is a surprise to people that are active voters, or otherwise are paying even the smallest bit of attention to their surroundings. I was informed this would happen when I went to vote in 2022. I’ve received two different notices in the mail to re-apply for vote by mail (which I actually prefer not to do). I’ve gotten text messages about it from interest groups within the state. It’s been mentioned on the news. It was mentioned by other neighbors on nextdoor. I got an email from the Seminole County Democratic Party about it. Short of coming and ringing my doorbell, or sending a raven with a message to my house… they’ve done everything they can to let people know they need to re-register for vote by mail if they prefer to do voting by mail.
