See Jenny Brown's testimony to the contrary. She was in Florida, so she's got some standing as an eyewitness.

It's all a fucking outrage. Disenfranchising felons is a disgrace. Petty harassments are routine, as are vote fraud and god knows what else. In the post you quote, I said that it took this particular outrage to get partisan Dems upset, but it was unlikely they'd agitate more broadly. And I was right. In fact, they're not even agitating about Florida anymore. It's only those radicals you claim don't give a shit.
