Bring Me the Declaration of Alina Garcia!
John Liccione (D) for Congress in FL CD-13 files emergency motion for Temporary Injunction to stop DeSantis Luna Protection Racket Gerrymander Map
CAMPAIGN PRESS RELEASE
Clearwater, Florida
This morning I filed the attached verified emergency motion for temporary injunction in the Sixth Judicial Circuit to halt HB 1D — the 2026 DeSantis congressional map I calI a Luna Protection Racket. It mass-deports south Pinellas CD-13 voters across Boca Ciega and Tampa Bays into a Manatee-anchored red CD-16. A majority of them are Coalition voters: registered Democrats, NPAs, and other non-Republicans - the anti-Luna Democratic-led Coalition bloc.
The real story here is who would NOT stand up under penalty of perjury to defend this unconstitutional map.
To assert that the map can’t be undone in time, the State needed one sworn statement from a Constitutional elections officer. It could not get one — not Secretary of State Cord Byrd. Not his own Division of Elections Director Maria Matthews. Not a single one of Florida’s 67 elected Supervisors of Elections.
Not Miami-Dade Supervisor and MAGA partisan hack Alina Garcia.
The only person the DeSantis RICO enterprise could induce was poor Xavier Pichs, a mid-level GIS manager two levels under Alina Garcia. And they made sure he never named the software feature and vender that debunks his sworn declaration filed under oath in the First District Court of Appeals.
That software is VR Systems’ Voter Focus, which Pinellas, Miami-Dade and almost all counties use. It has a documented “Clone an Election“ feature (see below) that copies a prior election’s districts, precincts, and ballot styles in a single operation into the next election - “a significant time saver.“ The prior congressional map in effect from 2022 and 2024 already exists. There is nothing to build or test. “Too late” to revert is a willful misrepresentation by omission by Garcia through her proxy underling. Shame on her.
To them all I say this: Bring me the declaration of Alina Garcia!
The Leon County rulings DeSantis is crowing about do not reach this case. (Equal Ground Education Fund Inc. et al. v. Byrd: 1D2026-1539 | 2026-CA-000914). My claim is race-independent, it doesn’t require the court or legislature to draw a new map. The reversion can be fielded in four days or less. I sued the Governor that drew the map not the Legislature, as well as Cord Byrd and Julie Marcus. I seek only to preserve the map Pinellas and the counties have voted under in 2022 and 2024.
Take a close look at all the State’s lawyers and private law firms whose names are on the above coverpage of the Appendix to Byrd’s Appellees’ Response. Everyone of them, all the way up to Attorney General James Uthmeier, just subporned perjury from a middle-management IT election worker. Shame on all of them. The crime/fraud exception to the attorney/client privilege is now on the table.
I am not a lawyer. I am representing myself, and I am the only candidate in court — self-funded out of my SSDI check.
No DNC establishment support. No PAC money. No Mark Elias Democracy Docket Washington DC lawyers. My Emergency Motion for Temporary Injunction is now the last one standing in the trial courts.
In contrast, my primary opponent, the establishment’s pre-selected candidate Leela Gray, is a lawyer. She has done nothing to protect the voting rights of Pinellas voters.
When called to duty, the lawyer-general went AWOL. While the grassroots rebel Democrat engineer and veteran NCO went full-metal offensive lawfare in defense of Floridians’ voting rights and election integrity.

Democratic candidate in Florida’s Fighting 13th Congressional District
Paid for by John Liccione for Pinellas
I've just filed a new emergency motion for temporary injunction to halt the DeSantis Luna Protection Racket gerrymander map, and the State's staked its entire case on the sworn declaration of one mid-level election worker — not his boss, Miami-Dade Supervisor of Elections Alina Garcia. Not one of Florida's 67 elected Supervisors, the Secretary of State, nor the Director of the Division of Elections, would swear to ANYTHING. They're ducking accountability while throwing this poor IT election worker under the bus. I say: "Bring me the declaration of Alina Garcia!" I'm John Liccione, rebel progressive Democrat running for Florida's 13th Congressional District to unseat Putin duck-puppet Anna Paulina Luna. Read the story, download the motion and evidence.
