Florida Electors Asked Not to Vote For Obama
December 9th, 2008 by flanewsA US Supreme Court case challenging the citizenship of President-Elect Barack Obama has been dropped, but that hasn’t stopped some here in Florida from asking the state’s electors not to vote for the president-elect.
Florida’s 27 electors have received dozens of letters claiming Obama was born in Kenya and his birth certificate was forged. Florida Elector Rick Minor says he is receiving a letter or two a day.
“They’re claims have no basis in fact whatsoever. Barack Obama was born August 4th, 1961, in Hawaii and he has the birth certificate to prove it and both the Department of Health in Hawaii and the Register of Vital Statistics have verified that there is no doubt he was born in the United States,” said Minor.
Florida’s Electors cast their votes next Monday.
