A federal judge has temporarily blocked enforcement of a new election law in Florida. The law imposed new limits on voter registration and get-out-the-vote operations. Groups that retained certain voter registration information, such as for get-out-the-vote operations, could under the law also face felony prosecution. Critics also argued that the limit on non-citizen participation on registration drives violated the right to equal protection under federal law. "Herrera-Lucha, a noncitizen who, herself, lacks the right to vote, has spent years registering and encouraging citizens to exercise that solemn right," Walker wrote.
