DeSantis proposes election crimes agency despite little evidence of voter fraud

Florida governor wants lawmakers to allocate nearly $6m for Office of Election Crime and Security

The Florida governor, Ron DeSantis, has proposed the formation of a large and unprecedented state agency to investigate election crimes - in a state where there is little evidence of voter fraud in the 2020 election or otherwise.

In response, one prominent state prosecutor sought to tie DeSantis to rightwing conspiracy theorists, calling his proposal a solution in search of a problem ... a $6m door prize for a QAnon pep rally".
