And, I saw one site that said about 2.8 million Floridians voted by mail. Obviously they’ve got the fraud under control, and they’ve got voting and the vote counting process streamlined.
Yes, and yes.
I went in to vote, the woman at the first desk scans my driver’s license in a machine, computer checks to see if I’m registered and what district(s) I live in, she gives me a ballot for my district(s), I go to a cordoned off set of
stand up desks, pick one, fill in the ovals on my ballot choices, take the ballot to a counting machine, insert it under the watching eyes of a poll worker, it takes in my ballot and counts it right then.
Total time in polling place: ten minutes...................
I have lived in Floria my entire life, I’ve voted in every election since 1978.
Here in Florida the so called “vote by mail” is called Absentee voting by many Floridians.
The major difference in the way Florida does it is, you must personally request a ballot, prove who you are, and your signature is verified, then you will get a ballot that can be filled out and returned.
In other vote by mail states, every registered voter gets sent a ballot, no request by the voter is required.
The way Florida does it is vastly different than true vote by mail states and eliminates nearly all of the fraud.
If you wanted to cheat, you would have to fill out a form, verify your identity and signature, assuming you can do all that, think of how difficult it would be to create enough ballots to change an election in a state the size of Florida.
if you are curious about the process of Florida’s vote by mail system, here is a link to Brevard County which is the Space Coast, it’s not the county I live in, but all the counties follow the same procedures.
BTW, I think Florida begins to count mail in ballots on the day of the election and has them complete in one day, that’s why a lot of counties can report results immediately after the polls close, that’s why at 7:30pm on election night, Florida can report over 2 million votes.

DeSantis got rid of the two supervisors of elections who had created chaos from 2018. The other 65 counties had competent people, even the Democrat ones. He also had the voter rolls cleaned up, and his election police force has been arresting felons who weren’t supposed to be voting. He is serious about election integrity. Those who want to commit fraud may be deterred by his enforcing the laws.
He’s also gotten rid of incompetent school board members.
