The people voted via referendum to restore voting rights to former prison inmates. The legislature didn't want to these people, who likely would vote Democratic, to vote. So, they dreamed up a law to subvert the will of the people and the SCOTUS agreed with them in a split decision.
He has been at it for a few years. Half these guys are the internet equivalent of cicadas. Lay in rest for some time, but one day, they end up making so much noise, it is impossible to ignore what their goal is.
I guess there is none because he doesnt hold any public offices.
It's immediately assumed that felons will vote Democrat, and it's true.

Billionaire Michael Bloomberg has reportedly raised more than $16 million in an effort to help convicted felons in Florida register to vote. The Florida Rights Restoration Coalition estimated …thehill.com
This is smart.
If Biden wins Florida by a slim margin he will owe it to Bloomberg.

Wait, wait, wait. I distinctly remember being told that there was no way to know how much people owed and that's why the requirement to pay all fines, fees, and restitution was unconstitutional. Was this... not true? If it was true, how did Bloomberg figure out how much these people owed?Bloomberg pays fines for 32,000 felons in Florida so they can vote

If they are free, then society is saying they served their time. I have no issue with them having to wait until off parole to vote, but once time is fully served, there is no reason almost any citizen should not be allowed to vote, with the only exception possibly being someone who went to jail specifically for voter fraud or some voting related crime.
Its assumption. Do you really believe a racist skinhead would vote for Biden? I guarantee there are some Trump supporters who are felons, who are in prison now or served their time.
Good for Bloomberg for trying to restore rights instead of trying to take them away.A person should have all their rights restored including the right to keep and bear arms once they have completed their sentence(which includes any fines and restitution). Although I have to wonder if he would do this in any solid blue or solid red states that have laws similar to Florida's?Bloomberg pays fines for 32,000 felons in Florida so they can vote

Nope. They would have to prove that he conditioned those payments on voting a certain way. Just like you cant go to jail for offering rides to people to the voting place, even if your belief is that those who wouldnt have a ride there would be more likely to vote a certain way.

The good news is...we have lawyers and judges just for this special occasion. This is a felony.
Show the law he broke. Until then, this is nothing more than an opinion, unsupported by facts. Anyone can claim anyone else broke any law until they provide evidence of that law being broken specifically by that person.
If it is considered a charity paying off something for you, it is unlikely you have to pay taxes on it.
Have you ever owed someone a favor?
Do you owe a charity a favor if they pay off your bills or give you money? Is there some written or verbal agreement that it is conditional (which would be a favor)? If someone offers to watch your kids or drive you to the voting place, is that illegal because now you owe them?
