Debbie Wasserman Schultz claims Brenda Snipes followed the law, circuit judge says otherwise

While appearing on CNN on Monday, Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, D-Fla., claimed that Broward County Elections Supervisor Brenda Snipes followed the law in her handling of ballots. But, the Daily Caller said, a circuit court judge said the exact opposite.

“Number one, [Snipes] has followed the process as Florida law prescribes,” Wasserman Schultz told CNN’s Jim Sciutto. “And there’s been absolutely nothing amiss that’s been found by Rick Scott’s own department of state election monitors who have been in her office since the spring.”

“[There’s] no evidence of anything that has gone wrong. The process is simply working. The deadlines have been met,” she added.

According to the Daily Caller:

However, a circuit court judge ruled this past Friday that Snipes did violate Florida public records law by not providing requested election information to Florida Governor Rick Scott, who is running for Senate.

Scott filed a lawsuit late Thursday night alleging that Snipes was improperly withholding election information, including a count of total ballots cast and a breakdown of votes by category.

Circuit Judge Carol-Lisa Phillips found that Snipes’ failure to provide that information to Scott’s campaign was a violation of Florida law, the Miami Herald reported.

After what Debbie Wasserman Schultz engineered and attempted to railroad through to the white house in 2016, I’m rather surprised that she retained any credibility whatsoever.

The left mysteriously disappeared at exactly 5pm that day.

I guess Soros wasn't offering to pay overtime.

What law? The US Constitution or the lawless “law” preferred by the Hillster?

...Staff in nursing homes CANNOT be marking ballots. A certified person at each nursing home has to sign that family or trusted members helped a patient with the ballot...

If a person "needs help" with a ballot, they should not be voting. Having a relative in a nursing home is not a reason for anyone to double vote.
