There is a limit on citizen sourced provisions that says you can only do one thing in a citizen sourced (I'm paraphrasing here) amendment. So this would have to be done in multiple phases. I get the idea, and I'm behind the idea of restoring voter's rights. It may not matter in FL, however.

Could that billionaire from NYC pay the fees so that all these people could vote? That would solve the problem until the courts can step in. Certainly a quicker solution.
