On Friday, the Washington Post was reportedly forced to amend an article that stated Republican Florida Rep. Anna Paulina Luna was a registered Democrat in 2017.
The Washington Post interviewed Rep. Luna in a thorough report about her childhood and political evolution.
However the liberal newspaper was forced to issue a retraction after it claimed she had previously been registered as a Democrat in Washington state. A claim which was later discovered to be false.
We incorrectly stated that Anna Paulina Luna was reg’d as a Dem in Washington state in 2017 based on an erroneous voter reg database. Wash only requires voters declare party affiliation when they cast a ballot in a POTUS primary. So sorry for the error! https://t.co/YBzo8wawZU

In a Friday tweet, Luna expressed more concerns about the Washington Post’s findings.
“[T]he Washington post just tried to claim my dad was never incarcerated, left out comments from my mom, said I was a registered Democrat, and did not report a convo they had with a former roommate, and interviewed ‘family’ I don’t talk to. This is comical,” Luna said in a Tweet.
Holy shit the Washington post just tried to claim my dad was never incarcerated, left out comments from my mom, said I was a registered Democrat, and did not report a convo they had with a former roommate, and interviewed “family” I don’t talk to. This is comical.

The Washington Post appeared to stand by the story even after being forced to make corrections on several key claims it made in the attempted hit piece.
