Florida's elections chief, who just last month ignited controversy by pushing for a new purge of voters identified as felons ineligible to vote, abruptly resigned from his job Monday.

Ed Kast, 53, a veteran state employee, turned in a brief letter to Secretary of State Glenda Hood that said, ''I find it necessary to tender my resignation.'' The resignation is effective June 15.

A spokeswoman for Hood said that Kast was not asked to resign by the secretary, and that he was leaving to ``pursue other opportunities.''

I hope these assholes finally pay for kicking 80,000 QUALIFIED voters of the roles in 2000. It looks like the worm is finally turning down there.

Hopefully, we will see racketeering charges against Jeb Bush and Katherine Harris after Kerry is elected!!!!!!

1. ''I find it necessary to tender my resignation.''

Well that says it all!

I hope it's not an excuse to put a even more Bushie plant in...

3. Don't forget that CNN (of all newsgroups!) is suing FL for the...

...purged voters list. That alone may have hastened Mr. Kast's departure from the scene.

It will be very interesting to see just how many purged voters on that list were indeed eligible to vote.
