Florida should invite Holder to sent the National Guard down to Florida to ensure the voting rights of Illegal Aliens and Snowbirds who are also registered to vote up North.

I know of several couples of ‘Snowbirds’ who live/have DLs in FL-PA-NC-NY, and vote in all 4 states, when they’re there for primaries and GEs. It’s illegal as hell, but they don’t care; they do it anyway. I’ve quit trying to explain the illegality of it to them.

That would be interesting as Holder is in no State's National Guard's unit's chain of command.
Furthermore, despite a 'law' "authoriz[ing] the President to take control of the National Guard", most States give control of their National Guard to their Governor in their State Constitution. (The ones whose Constitutions I've read.)
Guess what! Those same Constitutions do not allow for federal senators or representatives to amend them; therefore, the "law" is null and void as it grants to the federal government powers which are specifically reserved to the state [via their Constitution]. (Unless you want to make the case that's congress providing for the calling forth of the militia to enforce the laws of the United States... but in that case you'd have to explain how the removal of ineligible voters is violative of US laws.)
