Call to Action – Vote HARD NO on SB 1334

Flood our legislature with phone calls and emails IMMEDIATELY to stop the lunacy being pushed forth by lobbyists! This takes election integrity in Florida back instead of following Trump’s edict!

A serious issue is developing in Tallahassee that could negatively impact Florida elections for years to come.

The Senate is currently reviewing SB 1334, misleadingly framed as election “administrative” updates. In reality, these bills pose significant election integrity risks and should be viewed for what they are: ANOTHER “2026 Trojan Horse Bill.”

SB 1334 is being advanced as technical or procedural changes. Records and surrounding activity indicate otherwise.

Available information shows Ramba Consulting Group LLC is a principal force pushing this legislation behind the scenes. Key figures associated with this effort include David Ramba and Evan Power, raising serious concerns about conflicts of interest and insider-driven policy making.

This matters because SB 1334 would dramatically weaken election transparency and independent verification, while insulating election processes from public scrutiny. Specifically, the legislation:

Increases the risk of non-U.S. citizens voting in Florida elections by actually growing our numbers on the voter rolls and not effectively stopping non- citizens currently on the rolls from voting.
Raises the likelihood that inaccurate or compromised election results could be certified, including results affected by voting system malware, software misconfiguration, or maladministration.
Substantially reduces the ability of citizens, candidates, and political parties to verify election results or identify vulnerabilities, by allowing denial of public records requests or imposing prohibitively high costs due to extensive redaction requirements.

Florida’s reputation for election integrity was built on transparency, auditability, and citizen oversight. SB 1334 undermines those foundations while benefiting insiders who prefer decisions made out of public view.

Florida law has long recognized that public oversight is essential to election integrity. Access to records such as:

Vote-by-mail transport and chain-of-custody logs
Voting system reports and diagnostics
Election operations documentation allows citizens, candidates, and political parties to independently verify results, identify vulnerabilities, and hold administrators accountable.

This transparency is not a flaw—it is a safeguard.

PROBLEM SB 1334 introduces three critical failures:

Reduced Ability to Detect Non-Citizen Voting

By restricting access to verification records, the bills make it harder to confirm compliance with citizenship and eligibility requirements. When records are inaccessible, violations become harder to prove and easier to dismiss.

Certification Without Meaningful Validation

SB 1334 increases the risk that election results affected by:

Voting system malware
Software or tabulator misconfiguration
Chain-of-custody lapses
Human error or maladministration could still be certified without independent review. Certification without transparency is process theater—not integrity.

Public Records as a Barrier, Not a Right

The legislation allows election officials to deny records requests outright or demand excessive fees due to redaction requirements, effectively blocking access to essential citizen oversight documents.

RESOLUTION Florida should reject SB 1334 and reaffirm a clear standard:

Elections must be transparent enough to be independently verified by the public and candidates.

A responsible alternative would:

Preserve full public access to election records
Strengthen chain-of-custody transparency
Ensure voting systems remain auditable
Prevent lobbyist-driven insulation of election processes

SB 1334 fails every one of these tests.

CONCLUSION This legislation does not reform—it undermines Florida election security and can conceal election crimes.

When major lobbying interests push bills that reduce transparency, restrict records access, and centralize control, skepticism is not paranoia—it is prudence.

WHO BENEFITS: Lobbyists, insiders, and centralized control

WHO LOSES: Voters, candidates, political parties, and public trust

SB 1334 is a Trojan Horse. This bill has positive attributes but the failures out way the successes. Please vote HARD NO unless the 3 critical issues are amended.
