Default What's going on in Florida?

From what I understand the re-count in Scott vs Nelson slightly favored
Scott giving him some more votes.

Broward CountyÂ* finished the re-count with 15 minutes to spare but then
forwarded the results 2 minutes late, after the deadline.Â* By law, the
original vote tally remains as the official election result, forcing a
human hand count of "over-under" ballots" that is supposed to be done
by Sunday.

What a fiasco.

Scott claims it was done on purpose to make sure he didn't benefit from
the additional votes he received in the re-count.

This is either total incompetence, mismanagement or corruption.

Meanwhile, DeSantis is the confirmed winner to be governor.
Re-count only changed by one vote.

Just waiting for Gillum to concede.



Should have said, "Just waiting for Gillum to concede .... again".

Latest word from Gillum is that he will *not* concede, even though
the re-count resulted in him trailing DeSantis by 33,683 votes, putting
the margin outside of the requirement of a mandatory hand re-count.
