Last week and again on Tuesday, Mobile resident Jerry Mosley received fliers from the Florida Republican Party encouraging him to cast a Florida absentee ballot in the November election.
Read this article. Jeb Bush sent this Alabama resident, an ex-registered republican in Florida a letter asking him to send in an absentee ballot to Florida, voting for George Bush. He has reported it to the Federal Election Committee

A note interest; This is a very, very, republican newspaper, and it has already endorsed George Bush.
The reporter Eddie Curran hates democrats. This website does not have the pictures of the letters he recieved from Jeb Bush, which were in the actual paper copy. I am amazed they covered this. However, I think it will go unnoticed.
GOP asks Mobilian to vote in Florida
2I don't understand what the story is here, the guy is still registered to vote in FLA...it's just smart electioneering by the GOP and as a dem I am dismayed that the dem in the same circumstances has not received the same offer...
the level of voter fraud in this election (on both sides) is going to be absurd by the way

GOP asks Mobilian to vote in Florida
3Well, the article report the republican party has sent out more 1,000,000, such letters. Unless I missed it, the article it does not interview one person from the democratic party. I think this is a blatant attempt to get nonresidents of Florida to vote in Florida and probably their home states also.
Also, you should know that this newspaper in my home town, is AKA the Republican Gazette. They probably think Rush Limbaugh and Bill O'Reilly are tree hugging liberals. They make Fox News look left winged. No joke, they think George Bush shits rainbows of gold. The reporter in this article is nothing but an inquisitor for the republican party, which makes it odd that he would cover this on the front page.
Shouldn't people vote in their own state? What about voting on local issues? Do they want these nonresidents, selecting their mayors, congressmen, city councilmen, and dog catchers? It seems a little strange that someone moves out of your state and you would encourage them to vote in a state they do not live in. I always thought it was a law that you had to vote in your state of residence. I guess I was wrong.
