I have a somewhat different question. Why do Florida, Georgia, and Arizona, have so many problems with their voting systems? California has vastly more voters to count, but yet - there are no reports from California about 3-hour lines due too few voting locations or to inadequate or non-functional voting machines or about backed-up counting.
This is not rocket science folks, it's known how to design readable ballots, have enough precincts that people don't have to spend half their day waiting in line, how to have enough voting apparatuses on hand, and how to verify signatures and get those votes counted in a timely manner. Most states manage it just fine, whatever their voting process.
"I have a somewhat different question. Why do Florida, Georgia, and Arizona, have so many problems with their voting systems?"
Your "question" has NOTHING to do with the current issue in Fl.
The voting LAWS WERE NOT CARRIED OUT in the 2 DEM CONTROLLED COUNTIES.
it is NOT a STATEWIDE problem as you allude but just 2 COUNTIES.
Try to keep and STOP trying to hijack the thread and start your OWN thread.
Oh, you have no idea. The corruption in Palm Beach County is huge. All our judges are in the pockets of the wealthy democrats here, and they have long since used judge ruling to over rule the voice of the people to plant huge section 8 housing into strong republican areas.
"are in the pockets of the wealthy democrats here," probably came from NY City.
Marco Rubio sounds alarm: Dems trying to STEAL elections in Florida
Dear Pubs: please stop the juvenile whimpering and whining.
Count ALL of the votes and see who gets the most.
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...
It was an "accident.
It was only about a dozen votes.
No big deal.
This is spin.
“More than a dozen” could be 50 or 100 or thousands!
Being vague can be very convenient.
The same woman involved in these "mistakes", just happens to be , the same woman as in all of the other "mistakes!"
Whoops! Brenda Snipes’ office mixed bad provisional ballots with good ones
Quote:
Broward’s elections supervisor accidentally mixed more than a dozen rejected ballots with nearly 200 valid ones, a circumstance that is unlikely to help Brenda Snipes push back against Republican allegations of incompetence.
The mistake — for which no one had a solution Friday night — was discovered after Snipes agreed to present 205 provisional ballots to the Broward County canvassing board for inspection. She had initially intended to handle the ballots administratively, but agreed to present them to the canvassing board after Republican attorneys objected.
“We have found no clear authority controlling the situation faced by the board,” said Broward County Attorney Andrew Meyers.
Gillum, Nelson Lawyers Fight To Include Non-Citizen's Vote In Florida
Quote:
Lawyers for Florida Democratic candidates Andrew Gillum and Bill Nelson both fought to prevent a non-citizen’s vote from being excluded Friday night, according to a transcript of a Palm Beach County Canvassing Board proceeding obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation.
Michael Barnett, chairman of the Palm Beach Republican Party, told TheDCNF that the county’s canvassing board was going through provisional ballots and quickly deciding whether to allow or disallow each.
This exchange is of the first non-citizen’s vote they encountered. “We had a court reporter that we hired to sit in the proceedings, which are public,” he said.
I asked my brother, who votes as a Democrat, if he voted. He said, 'No. I don't have to. It won't make any difference how I vote, they're going to do whatever they want to do with or without me actually voting.'
The punchline came when he said, Besides that, with the way things are today, maybe I did vote. I don't know?
