Susan Bucher, the long-time supervisor of elections in Palm Beach County, was suspended Friday by Gov. Ron DeSantis following a series of post-election controversies. At a news conference at The Historical Museum of Palm Beach, DeSantis said he would follow Secretary of State Mike Ertel’s recommendation to suspend Bucher in order “to right the ship” in Palm Beach County. “Palm Beach County stands alone in their level of ineptitude” in the election reporting process, DeSantis said.

Well deserved. Note the defiance from corrupt officials who have been conditioned to have no fear of reprisals.

And it is ONLY palm beach county that needs to have democrat voter scams.

That one location can outvote the entire rest of the state.

In fact, out of 3000 or so voting districts in the USA, the democrats only have to control the votes in about 57 of them in order to control the outcome of every election.

Because Rick Scott lacks a spine. Something we are sadly all going to see on display in the Senate.

“Palm Beach County stands alone in their level of ineptitude” in the election reporting process, DeSantis said.

Only in Floriduh and not including Illinois, NY, NJ and Californicator land.

Hopefully, it's just the start of a nationwide trend.

*****************
It is for this reason that “winner take all” for President, on the state level, needs to cease.

Each Congressional District needs its Electoral Vote to reflect how the vote went in its district, not be overwhelmed by votes in large urban district, that have nothing in common with them.

We continually see large segments of states vote conservative, and yet the vote in urban areas, where skullduggery can easily take place, will find enough votes (through vote harvesting, mysterious absentee voters, multiple votes by individuals, and continual recounts) to turn the election for Dems.

The repeal of the 17th Amendment would also help to end the control of Senators by special interest groups from outside a state, that throw large chunks of money into elections, and highly influence their votes, once elected.

I lived in Palm Beach County from 2007-2014 and monitored elections there - trust me, this is well deserved.

Let’s hope Scott can outshine Nelson. He’s not exactly hitting the gate running. Pathetic.

DeSantis suspended Broward County Sheriff Israel a couple of weeks ago.

The Sheriff in the school shooting case down there and Hillary's butt buddy.

I'd say DeSantis is doing pretty good so far.
