“There is no question that Broward County Supervisor of Elections Brenda Snipes failed to comply with Florida law on multiple counts, undermining Floridians’ confidence in our electoral process,” the former Florida governor tweeted.
Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush called for embattled Broward County election chief Brenda Snipes to be removed from office, adding fuel to a Republican effort to cast doubt on the validity of statewide election results.
The Broward County Supervisor of Elections Office, to which Bush appointed Snipes in 2003, has come under fire. The office continued on Monday to count tens of thousands of ballots, leading some Republicans — cheered on by President Donald Trump — to accuse the office of fraud without offering any evidence of wrongdoing....[snip]
And she’s losing the support of fellow Democrats, too....
In May, a federal judge said she violated state and federal laws by destroying ballots from the 2016 reelection bid of Democratic Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz.
She has become the scapegoat upon which many Republicans are blaming the Florida GOP’s midterm election woes. Some state officials say her lax oversight has created an office where election fraud can happen.....
Last week, Trump tweeted about “The Broward Effect,” and wondered why none of the “found” votes were for Republicans.
The president tweeted Monday, Veteran’s Day, that the counting should stop and the results from election night should stand — an outcome that, some noted, could lead to the disfranchisement of military members stationed overseas.
“The Florida Election should be called in favor of Rick Scott and Ron DeSantis in that large numbers of new ballots showed up out of nowhere, and many ballots are missing or forged,” Trump wrote. “An honest vote count is no longer possible-ballots massively infected. Must go with Election Night!

Snipes Swipes Votes!
She ought to be jailed (along with Hillary).
Thanks for nothing, Yeb.
L
Yes he is correct.
Who has the authority to remove Snipes from her position?
It must be done.
Likewise the Palm Beach supervisor must go.
WE MUST DO THIS OR ALL IS LOST!
baiting Scott
No Shit SHERLOCK....
Wow....low energy Jeb chimes in!
ok now. Who woke Jeb up?
We the People??
i doubt he regrets it. she likely played things as he wanted at times. seems to me he is just trying to keep himself relevant and doesn’t mind her being canned. probably other useful tools to get in place as need be.
Thanks, Yeb!
YOU were the IDIOT who originally appointed her.
Wow, this means that Jeb Bush is a racist.
While recognizing his more recent weaknesses, Jeb was an effective and mostly conservative governor of FL. His support of Scott and DeSantis is important and carries weight in FL.
Translation: Jeb wants to run against President Trump and beat him for the nomination, in order to be able to lose to whatever even bigger loser the Demwits wind up running in 2020. Jeb's probably setting up a gofundme page for her legal defense as we 'speak'.
Jeb appointed this incompetent partisan hack black woman (Snipes) because he removed from office the previous criminally partisan and incompetent black woman. He was obviously terrified of being called a racist.
Thanks for nothing, Low Energy Jeb!!!
What you said. They are going to tar and feather him and then ride him out on the rails. How dare he say this.
Scott should have sent in the state troopers days ago.
Please Clap!
Too F’n late. the fraudulent votes will be counted and that’s all that actually matters at this point firing/arresting this POS does nothing.
FL Governor can suspend.
FL Senate investigates.
FL Senate removes SOE.
That is how it works.
FL SOS or AG has no authority in this.
