Judge to Republicans: Stop misleading Florida

There's a refreshing ruling.

A judge in Leon County tossed out the ballot referendum on property tax reform. It was to have been on the Jan. 29 ballot when the presidential primary vote is held. Said the judge, "The summary is just not correct. In fact, it is misleading."

House Speaker Marco Rubio ramped up on CBS4 and declared of the Democrats: "It's the biggest tax cut in Florida's history, and that's why they're against it."

Marco, didn't you hear the judge: Stop misleading Florida.

Here's the PDF file of the judge's ruling, from Miami Herald's Naked Politics blog. Scroll down to p. 6 to see the truly opaque language that gave the judge a migraine.
