SPECIAL REPORT: ‘That is fraud.’ GOP registered more than 100 voters as Republicans without their consent miamiherald.com/news/politics-…
Several voters at Vernon Ashley Plaza, a public housing complex in Hialeah, said their affiliation had been changed without their knowledge or consent.

All of them became Republicans. All of the paperwork submitted by Republican canvassers, records show. miamiherald.com/news/politics-…
The pattern was repeated in low-income housing complexes in Hialeah and Little Havana, our investigation found.

A team of reporters visited 8 locations where voter registration data showed unusually high numbers of voters switching parties last year. miamiherald.com/news/politics-…
The reporters knocked on every door where someone’s party affiliation had changed. Four out of every five voters who spoke to the Herald — 141 in total — said that their party affiliation had been changed without their knowledge. miamiherald.com/news/politics-…

IN TODAY’S MIAMI HERALD: Our reimagined newspaper features an in-depth look at claims from a group of South Florida voters who said they had their party affiliation changed without their knowledge by canvassers from the Republican Party of Florida. 🧵 Image
Miami Herald reporters visited eight locations where voter registration data showed unusually high numbers of voters switched from one party to another in 2021 and knocked on each door where a voter’s party changed.

Here's what they found. miamiherald.com/news/politics-…
Four out of every five voters who spoke to the Herald – 141 in total – said their party affiliation had been changed without their knowledge. In all but six cases, records show they had recently been registered as Republicans by canvassers from the Republican Party of Florida.

IN TODAY’S MIAMI HERALD: Our reimagined newspaper features an in-depth look at the killing of Trayvon Martin – the 10th anniversary of his death is less than a week away – and what, if anything, has truly changed for Black and brown people in America. 🧵
Sybrina Fulton, Trayvon’s mother, has spent much of the last decade ensuring that her son’s memory doesn’t fade, organizing peace walks, creating a group of grieving mothers and becoming the voice for the son who could no longer speak for himself. miamiherald.com/news/local/com…
“It seems like we’re taking two steps forward and two steps back,” Fulton said.

Although both Ahmaud Arbery and George Floyd’s killers were convicted, the bigger issue was that these incidents of racial violence kept occurring.

IN TODAY’S MIAMI HERALD: Our reimagined newspaper features an in-depth look at Florida’s outsized role in providing recruits for militant groups like the Proud Boys, the Oath Keepers, Three Percenters and neo-Nazis. 🧵
On Jan. 6, 2021, Kelly Meggs, the new “state lead” of the Florida Oath Keepers, and his wife, joined a violent mob breaching the U.S. Capitol, part of a throng loyal to defeated President Donald Trump and bent on overturning the 2020 presidential election. miamiherald.com/news/politics-…
Their “stack” — a military-style line of mostly men in tactical gear marching through the mob — snaked through the crowd, each with a hand on the shoulder of the other, and into the building in one of the many shocking images from the assault, captured on video.

IN TODAY’S MIAMI HERALD: Our reimagined newspaper features an in-depth look at the allegations of widespread racial discrimination in the NFL’s hiring process by former Miami Dolphins coach Brian Flores in his explosive lawsuit. 🧵
The league does not publish the data necessary to analyze why increasing diversity in the interviewing process has not produced a more diverse coaching staff — namely, data on everyone who interviews for head coaching jobs.

The Miami Herald is doing so. miamiherald.com/sports/nfl/mia…
The Herald compiled a dataset showing each candidate who interviewed for at least one of the 17 openings for NFL head coaching jobs filled since 2020. Four other jobs had not been filled as of Saturday afternoon.

IN TODAY’S MIAMI HERALD: Our reimagined newspaper features part one of a rolling series Anatomy of Collapse, an in-depth analysis of Champlain Towers South’s structural drawings, building codes and debris photos done in consultation with engineers and construction experts. 🧵 Image
The analysis revealed a poorly designed building –– even for the 1970s when the plans were originally drawn and codes were less rigorous –– where most of the column designs were too narrow and plans for the pool deck area show potential weaknesses. miamiherald.com/news/local/com…
“The design was faulty,” said Eugenio Santiago, a licensed structural engineer and retired chief building official for Key Biscayne. Overcrowded columns were “cracking from day one,” he said. Image
