Also, is it "playing the race card" to try to prevent the disenfranchisement of thousands of voters? Shouldn't you be accusing Florida election officials of playing the race card?

Perhaps I misread it then as it seemed to be a blanket statement about all posts who brought up Democrats. If that's not the case then I apologize and please ignore my off the mark comment.
Yes it is playing the race card because they are associating it with intimidation of only blacks. Was it only blacks who ended up off the voter rolls? I think not. Are blacks the only felons not allowed to vote? Obviously not. Yet the article clearly makes race a dividing point. Why not make the whole case about the fact that this happened or is happening rather than it being targeted at blacks? Obviously it's because they are trying to motivated blacks, who are more likely to vote Democratic, to get to the polls.
