Florida Gov. Scott Dead in 2006?
Mistakenly dead, that is.
Florida Gov. and head vote purger Rick Scott cast a provisional ballot in 2006 because officials mistakenly thought he was deceased.
(...)
Collier County election officials had received a Social Security Death Index Death Record that led them to believe he had died on January 27, 2006.
In fact the deceased was Richard E. Scott, who had the same birthday as the governor, December 1, 1952. The governor's full name is Richard Lynn Scott.
R.L. proved himself very much alive (to the detriment of all Florida residents) and was permitted to vote.

Geez
Scott wasn't anyone's first choice- The GOP down here is pretty mucked up- 1/2 of Tally thinks Jeb is still Governor... Look at Robinson's speech to the school boards yesterday.
Praise the "Jeb' and pass along the FCATS...(repeat chorus 3 x)... and we'll all be smart.
But the Democrats down here are screwed up even worse...
"But the Democrats down here are screwed up even worse..."
Seriously? That's laughable. The Dems haven't had any power in Florida for over a decade.
This governor has some sort of vendetta against this state and both you and I know it. He is just strange enough to take his personal experience with voter purging to take it out on everyone else.
This guy needs to go. I'm ready for Lt. Gov. Jennifer Carroll to step in. A woman with her credentials must be sick to be paired with this guy.
