I don't know if anyone has diaried about this so far, but this is great news.
Here's part of what the Miami Heraldis reporting:

In a much-anticipated decision, U.S. District Judge Robert Hinkle on Thursday struck down some provisions of a Florida elections law that imposed new restrictions on third-party groups that register new voters.

It may not necessarily be a perfect decision, but I sure hope this is the start of new voter registration activity in Florida that will bring new voters into the system and signal the beginning of the end of the Republican party's war against democracy in Florida and nationwide.
More below.

I realize this is a short diary, but I sure hope this is the spark that sees to it that all Florida voters and those of other states who want to vote have that opporunity.
