LINK DeSantis' proposed election police force alarms voting rights advocates - CNNPolitics
(No doubt the "voting police" will be used to intimidate people of color)
(CNN)Florida could become the first state in the country with a dedicated police force to investigate election fraud under a proposal that has become a top priority of Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis.
The proposal has concerned voting rights advocates, local election officials and Democrats, who fear the scope of this police force's new mandate could lead to voter intimidation. If approved, the new office would have a 52-member team, including 20 sworn police officers, to "investigate, detect, apprehend, and arrest anyone for an alleged violation" of election laws.

Can you back that up with a source? I could not find any reference online to substantiate your claims of "citizen squads" as pertaining to "election police" or monitoring elections.
My guess is this is based on SOP in Russia.

Yeah, I remember in 2016, when Trump won, they said "you lost get over it." Yet in 2020, when they lost, they cant' seem to get over it themselves.
