Keeping Felons on Florida’s Registration List?

The Palm Beach Post has this story reporting that: “In sharp contrast to the 2000 elections, when thousands of eligible voters were mistakenly purged from the rolls because of an error-riddled felon voter list, elections supervisors say the state is going to the other extreme, thoroughly checking and removing new registrants but too often allowing felons already registered to remain.” There’s a dispute between state and local election officials over who has the authority to remove people from the new statewide registration list.
