And that may be true as far that goes - but this is Florida, and the governor's a Republican (as well as a felon).
That has widespread vote-counting error written all over it.

That's the beauty of electronic voting and tabulation: You can stuff those ballot boxes like a tobacco chewing, pork rind-munching 1920s Jim Crow stooge - but look like a hip, 21st century techie while doing it.

(6,699 posts)I realize Scott is doing everything possible to shut down any further vote count. He currently leads in the vote count, so does the idiot for governor, and consequently they dont care about any further vote counts. I get that.
What I dont get is all of these injunctions and lawsuits that are being filed by Scott, the Republicans, and Nelson and the Democrats.
This article says that Scotts request for an injunction was denied, but does it mean anything? I read that one of the counties claims theres no way they can give an accurate account by Thursday? I understand the Senate race is so close that there will be a recount regardless?
Just like with presidential race and 2000, we are getting lost in the technicalities and the suits and counter suits that affect a complete and honest election return.
What is the damn hurry? I just dont understand why they cant wait until all the ballots are counted. WTF is wrong with these sons of bitches in Florida!?
