this is not sounding good

Florida’s Senate race appears headed for a recount, and the lead lawyer representing Sen. Bill Nelson’s campaign claims he’s “confident” the results will end with a Democratic victory over Republican Gov. Rick Scott.

Nelson’s share of the vote has continued to climb since Tuesday night, which ended with the two candidates 57,000 votes apart out of over 8.1 million ballots cast. Scott now leads by just 21,986 votes, of .3 percent of the total share, and ballots are still being counted in Democratic-leaning Palm Beach and Broward counties.

Broward also experienced an “unusual undervote pattern,” Elias said.

Data on the county board of elections site shows that more votes were cast for down-ballot offices like governor, attorney general and even chief financial officer than the top-of-the-ticket Senate race.

Elias said that he was “pretty confident” this resulted from a calibration or scanning issue that didn’t read markings on this particular part of the ballot.

Reports that the ballot design, which had the Senate race buried on the lower left corner, threw off some voters would not “cause an undervote of the magnitude we’re seeing,” Elias said.

Sadly, this crap is repeated in jurisdiction after jurisdiction and always to the benefit of Democrats. Ballots from two of the largest urban areas in Montana weren’t counted until after the rest of the state. And guess what? Those ballots went heavily for Jon Tester and gave him a victory.

Ballots from Maricopa County, AZ, usually a Democratic stronghold, haven’t been fully counted yet and when they are Martha McSally’s victory will be up for grabs.

As Rubio points out, vote fraud is a way of life in Broward County but they still run their elections like they want to run them. A mission for the new Attorney General might be a basic voting rights investigation into how these Democrat vote sumps are allowed to wait until everyone else counts their ballots before they count theirs .

Just 17,000 votes now separate Rick Scott and Bill Nelson, within manual recount range.

AND the Florida governor's race is now within the margin for a machine recount

The man in charge of overseeing the recording of ballots in Arizona’s largest county, Maricopa, as ballots are being counted in the very tight Senate race, is facing heat over his very public support of leftist politicians.

Adrian Fontes is the Maricopa County Recorder. Maricopa is the county with by far the greatest number of votes in the state.

The Arizona Republican parties for Yuma, Navajo, and Apache counties on Wednesday sued all Arizona County recorders and the Secretary of State over the method for verifying signatures on mail-in ballots dropped at polling locations on election day, according to the Arizona Republic.

Fontes is among recorders who believe it is acceptable, when signatures do not match, to contact voters after election day in order to verify he or she was the signatory on a ballot. The outlet reported that the lawsuit alleges contacting voters after the election is not permitted in Arizona.

Early in the 2016 election cycle, Fontes supported democratic socialist Bernie Sanders for president and in November 2016 spoke on a stage ahead of Sanders at a rally for Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton

As of late Thursday, Maricopa still had 345,000 ballots to count. Of those, 150,000 were early ballots and 195,000 were Election Day drop-off, provisional, or out-of-precinct ballots.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Trump-allied Republican Ron DeSantis was formally elected governor of Florida and outgoing Gov. Rick Scott elected U.S. senator on Tuesday when the state certified election results two weeks after tight margins prompted tumultuous recounts.

The Elections Canvassing Commission met at the Florida Capitol to certify the results of the Nov. 6 election after two weeks of contention and finger-pointing. The meeting lasted a mere five minutes.

The results: former U.S. Rep. DeSantis was elected by 32,463 votes out of more than 8 million cast, defeating Democratic Tallahassee Mayor Andrew Gillum.

Scott defeated incumbent Democratic U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson by 10,033 votes.

Consider that a successful test run for another Democrat "technique". If it's easy to get tired and lose track of the state of play, it's easier for the Dems and their friends in the MSM to massage a couple more close races to go their way.

It seems the election for UT-4 has finally come to an end. Mia lost by less than 700 votes. She has not yet conceded.

Her not conceding sure didn't stop our governor from congratulating the dem.

Well anyway, it seems Mia didn't much help her own cause. Shame.

A greater three ring circus of an election I have not seen for a long time. McAdams is the guy who spent three nights in the Road Home Shelter under an assumed name, with no one other than his chief of staff with him. He did that at great personal risk to get a first hand understanding of what was really happening inside. This was not revealed until months later, by a Republican mayor.

I mention this because McAdams is well-liked, and while he is a democrat, I feel Mia went way too far in attacking him personally.
