I'm in shock...that's all I can say. Total shock. I come back from teaching my assessment class and what do I find as the lead story in the St. Pete Times? Gov. Rick Scott signs controversial election reform bill into law. Jaw drop. According to the Governors Office, over 15,000 emails, phone calls and letters came through to his office about this bill. And yet, he signed it.
I'm speechless. Utterly speechless. And so disappointed.
15,000 emails, phone calls, etc., responding to the entire 155-page bill? Or to just one highly publicized provision in the bill? And 15,000 responses -- 1,300 of which were in favor --out of how many registered voters? Just looking for context . . .
