A Florida GOP state lawmaker on Tuesday pitched a bill that would eliminate the Democrat party. “The Ultimate Cancel Act,” filed by state Senator Blaise Ingoglia, would “cancel” any filing by any political party that supported slavery during the Civil War. “The Democrat party adopted pro-slavery stances in their party platforms and this bill says that if you have done that in the past, then the Secretary of State shall de-certify and get rid of the party,” Ingoglia said. Nikki Fried, the chairwoman of the Florida Democrat Party, lashed out at Ingoglia for speaking the truth about the Democrat party’s past. NBC News reported: A Republican in Florida’s state Legislature has filed a bill that, if enacted, would eliminate the Florida Democratic Party. “The Ultimate Cancel Act,” filed on Tuesday by state Sen. Blaise Ingoglia, would require the state’s Division of Elections to “immediately cancel” the filings of any political party whose platform had “previously advocated for, or been in support of, slavery or involuntary servitude.” The bill, called S.B. 1248, would require Florida officials to notify all registered voters who belong to any canceled parties that their party no longer exists. It would also change their voter registration to “no party affiliation” and “provide procedures” for those voters to update their affiliation to “an active political party.” The bill would allow any canceled political parties to re-register with the Florida Department of State — but only under the condition that the party change its name to something “substantially different from the name of any other party previously registered” with the agency. Florida GOP State Lawmaker Pitches Bill That Would Eliminate Democrat Party
You've got to love Florida!! And I wi I shcould see all the liberal heads exploding after reading this!!
Meh....just 'virtue' signaling by yet another MAGA maggot politician....whatever the Democratic Party stance back in the day of Slavery, involuntary labour and the legal paraphernalia of Jim Crow, the Democratic Party's platform has changed....the Republican Party is the American political party which is keen to dismantle the Republic piece by piece....
Yes... The Republican Party is full of centrists who get pulled further left with every election cycle, .essentially Republicans in name only. The battle is not only with the Dems and Leftists in public office but with the Wolves in sheep's clothing as well.
The Republican centrists are probably where they have always been...just that TRumpist MAGA maggots like MTG, Lauren Boebert, Paul Gosar, Matt Gaetz, Scott Perry, et al, have pulled the Republican Party further towards the rabid right. When Republican politicians like Alaskan, State representative (David Eastman), can pitch the diabolical proposition that the death of an abused child is actually an economic benefit to the State, one may wonder how self destructive a path the Republican Party will beat towards their ideological culture wars suicide. tps://www.adn.com/alaska-news/2023/02/21/rep-eastman-sparks-outrage-after-asking-about-the-potential-economic-benefits-of-the-deaths-of-abused-alaska-children/ Whatever, the Republican Party has devolved into since the era of TRump, it is resembling less and less the political entity that Abraham Lincoln would recognise if he were alive today.
