(CNN) Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis unveiled a slate of voting proposals Friday that he wants lawmakers to pass in their upcoming legislative session, including restricting the mass mailing of mail-in ballots and access to ballot drop boxes. DeSantis continued to peddle false claims about election security, though there is no evidence of widespread voter fraud in the 2020 election. Under the proposal, voters would need to request an absentee ballot each election year. DeSantis also wants lawmakers, when they convene in March, to bolster the vote-by-mail signature verification process and to not "shut out" Florida political parties and candidates from observing the voter signature matching process.
