The count has tightened to recount territory in Georgia, and also tightening up in the Florida gubernatorial race. Heavens, you don’t suppose they tried to steal the races, do you? Via Slate:
One reason for hope for Nelson is that a traditionally Democratic area, Broward County, has so far reported fewer votes for the Senate race compared with the gubernatorial race, according to data compiled by MSNBC’s Steve Kornacki. In other Florida counties, no such discrepancy exists. While some of the discrepancy could be due to genuine undervotes—for instance, the design of the ballot may have led some voters to miss it and not vote in that race—it’s possible that the county hasn’t correctly counted all the ballots. About 24,000 ballots in Broward County registered a vote in the governor’s race but not for the Senate race.
The discrepancy with the Senate race tally is consistent down the ballot, with more votes cast in lower-profile races like commissioner of agriculture, chief financial officer, and attorney general than in the Senate race, according to the preliminary county results. As of Thursday afternoon, a total of 675,216 votes had been counted in the Senate race in Broward (466,321 for Nelson and 208,895 for Scott). By comparison, the gubernatorial race had 701,080 cast in Broward, and even the commissioner of agriculture race had 685,440 total votes while the chief financial officer race had 685,017 votes.
Democratic election lawyer Marc Elias told the Sun Sentinel that he thinks the undervotes were due to voting machines not detecting genuine votes. “I am pretty confident what you are going to see are markings that were not picked up by the machines or a calibration issue that was not registering that part of the ballot,” he said.
Florida and Georgia Republicans have been stealing votes and elections since 1952, when the entire white, Southern Democratic Party all switched and became Republicans.
This year the damn Progressive Democrats (Socialists) are trying to steal the election.
According to Scott and Kemp.
Senator Marco Rubio even took an extremist right wing position and demanded that all vote counting, in Florida, stop immediately.
Maybe he did that because he knows that several of the counties in the hurricane ravaged area in the Florida panhandle had higher voter turnout then the state average. (Liberty, Wakulla, Franklin to name a few.)
That’s hard to explain even for a liar and thief like Rubio.
The only things preventing Florida and Georgia from becoming bright blue states are vote theft and voter suppression.
The only things preventing America from becoming a bright blue country are corrupt oligarchs and gerrymandering.
