How DARE She!
How DARE a high school civics teacher help students register to vote!
The teacher who heads up New Smyrna Beach High School's student government association could face thousands of dollars in fines. Her transgression? Helping students register to vote.
Florida Republicans claim the laws that Jill Cicciarelli "violated" are there to prevent "voter fraud," a virtually non-existent problem. On average, based on the latest information I can find, less than 4 people a year nationwide are convicted of voter fraud.
