About Florida Election Law

Having worked on election law issues since 2000, I’ve developed a personal and professional interest in this area of law.  This site is not meant to be partisan or to take a political side of any issue, but to give practitioners of all political stripes a view of what is occurring in Florida.  It also allows me to create a snapshot of election law history as these issues evolve.  Florida Election Law is a personal site, designed and maintained by me for my enjoyment and yours. All discussion of legal issues on this site is general commentary only and is not legal advice.

Finally, let me emphasize: This is a personal web site offering commentary, not legal advice. All statements published on or referenced by this site should be attributed solely to the individual who originally made them and not to anyone else.

Thank you to Matt Conigliaro, a fellow CF attorney and former blogger at Abstract Appeal for his advice on setting up this site.
