A Broward County Senate Steal?

Democrats have a hard time accepting electoral defeat. They’ve spent two years claiming with little evidence that Vladimir Putin elected Donald Trump. And now comes a vote-counting debacle in southern Florida that is at best gross incompetence, though don’t rule out an attempt to steal GOP wins for Senate and Governor.

Florida Gov. Rick Scott is about 15,000 votes ahead of Democratic incumbent Bill Nelson for a seat in the Senate. That puts the race in range of an automatic recount under state law. But at 11:30 p.m. on election night, Mr. Scott led by 57,000 votes. The same trend is happening in the gubernatorial race that went for Republican Ron DeSantis over progressive Andrew Gillum, though neither race appeared to be heading for a recount on election night.

What I’m surprised about is that it didn’t happen already. Conservatives are amazingly hard to rouse to violence.

If stealing Senate seats is now part of the game, so soon will be the right-wing death squad. Lots of good targets, with plenty of culpability and really big mouths so we know who they are and where they are, out there.

They are truly playing with fire. There will be hell to pay.

Is everyone in Broward County Black or is there some racial discrimination going on?
