Wed. p.m.: FLA has O up 46K with 97% in. So, what's the hold-up?

[lindysalsagal]

Are there more than 46K people in that 3%? Actually, it would have to be 80K to turn it.

Anyone know? Are there that many absentee ballots?

It seems all the counties are showing at 100%. Who knows what will happen now...

8. This is a DISGRACE

At what point does this state get its shit together when it comes to putting on elections? WTF is the deal? Heads need to roll. And then roll some more.

11. Apparently extremely long lines in SoFL.

Some didn't vote until 1AM (as reported here on DU -- sorry no source).

If so, we owe a lot to those people who refused to be disenfranchised. Incredible people who wouldn't take the answer, "No! You cannot vote."

I bow to those people.
