That's all.

What could be more American?

Besides, everybody remembers the 2000 election, when Pubs kept recounting in FL until Dubya got enough to win by about 500 votes, then got the supreme court to halt the whole thing.

And we all know how well that worked out for America. Iraq, Afghanistan, great recession...

Irony is not a mineral.

"Dear Pubs: please stop the juvenile whimpering and whining."

As USUAL it is the DEMS who are "whimpering and whining."

It is THEY who REFUSE to accept the outcome of the voting. (sounds familular)

It is THEY, as usual in these 2 counties, who CAN"T FLOW THE LAWS

The biggest area in the state that got hit with the last hurricane had NO PROBLEM FOLLOWING THE LAW and turned over its voter info ON TIME.

Why CAN'T these 2 counties, AGAIN?

"Besides, everybody remembers the 2000 election, when Pubs kept recounting in FL until Dubya got enough to win by about 500 votes"

Another history failure.

It was THESE SAME 2 COUNTIES that would NOT accept W's win and started the recount debacle.

It was the DEMS who FIRST sent HUNDREDS of dem LAWYERS down and and in the end W. STILL WON EVERY RE-COUNT.

Weird how no investigations into this have found any evidence of fraud. It's almost like Scott was making it up. Who would ever have guessed??

Marco Rubio sounds alarm: Dems trying to STEAL elections in Florida
Not only him, but Scott and Trump as well. This kind of language has led to gatherings of angry mobs around Florida.

Such accusations are inane, since the law requires the recount.

What is funny is that these "recount" laws were passed under the Republican Legislature since the 2000 election debacle and under Rick Scott's tenure as Governor for the past 8 years.

Republicans have been in control of Florida's Government for the past 20 years!!! and they are blaming the Dems for this?



They are following the laws they implemented!

On the topic of Florida- the media needs to stop calling races until all votes are counted or until the lead surpasses outstanding ballots. Look at California where they've wisely mad no call in 5 or 6 house races because you only need an election day postmark for the ballot to count. Or Arizona where people apparently mailed in hundreds of thousands of voter for a race stuck at .5%.


I actually read a posting from a conservative commentator railing at Fox News for making their calls too early- and specifically for them being the first network to call the House while westerners were still voting. He made some interesting points.


Whoever is Florida SoS needs to go to the legislature and tighten up their laws and find $ to get the different counties in line. Some of their counties have more population than several states now and trusting elections to lower grade county employees is a recipe for problems. Especially in such a politically volatile state.
It don't work like that, here in Texas. Never has, until this election.

No problem with that.

But WHY are the 2 dem run counties the ONLY 2 IN THE STATE that did NOT COMPLY with the law? And NOT the FIRST TIME.

Even up in the Panhandle area, Panama City, etc., who suffered catastrophic hurricane damage was ABLE to COMPLY with the LAWS and these 2 can't!

Reminiscent of the old Chicago Machine.
Never reveal the vote total, until you figure out how many votes you need.


Today, 7 day after the Broward, Dade & Palm Beach vote ended, we still do not have a number for the total votes cast.


This is the key to their corruption.
They should have had a total amount of votes cast by now.... Unless they have to find votes to make Nelson and Gilliun win.

Why have they refused to produce data on how many ballots were sent out and where they were sent?

Remember, it is not the people that cast the ballots that decide elections.
It is those counting the votes, that tell you who to obey & pay.
