The Miami Herald is a communist rag.

Turning a blind eye to democrat corruption for years, then only reporting on something after its too late to do anything about it.

Thanks Cincinatus' Wife.
Congressman Joe Garcia’s chief of staff abruptly resigned Friday after being implicated in a sophisticated scheme to manipulate last year’s primary elections by submitting hundreds of fraudulent absentee-ballot requests... Jeffrey Garcia, no relation... took responsibility for the plot... also worked last year on the campaign of Democrat Patrick Murphy of Jupiter, who unseated tea-party Republican congressman Allen West... Miami-Dade state attorney’s office... served search warrants Friday at the homes of Giancarlo Sopo, 30, Joe Garcia’s communications director; and John Estes, 26, his 2012 campaign manager... Joe Garcia said he would likely put Sopo on administrative leave for the time being... the probe that prosecutors reopened in February, after a Herald investigation found that hundreds of 2,552 fraudulent requests for the Aug. 14 primaries originated from Internet Protocol addresses in Miami.
Well, see, law enforcement has no ability to trace Internet traffic. /s

I’m not going to defend the Miami Herald, but compared to the Kansas City (Red) Star, they are a beacon of hope.
