This is another media lie. They want you to think that the undervote in Broward would have all went to Nelson. There is just one problem with that.
Rick Scott received 10K less votes than DeSantis in Broward.
The undervote in Broward was evenly distributed.
Rick Scott would have won regardless.
Well - most would have ended up as votes for Nelson if the democrats had been able to fully carry out their PLAN-A.
Snipes has been the election supervisor in Browward for 15 years and knows exactly what she is doing.
Heck - she probably knows the laws, rules and mechanics of conducting an election as well as anyone in the state.
Any ballot design in Broward or Palm Beach Counties that leads to confusion and/or undervotes is intentional.
An intentionally confusing ballot creates undervotes for an office.
If the officials are corrupt democrats an undervote is a future democrat vote.
An undervote is just two blank circles on the ballot just begging for a cheater to ink in one of the circles and turn it into a vote.
After the polls close they can go behind closed doors and hand mark those blank votes as votes for the democrat.
Don't forget - Snipes has already been found guilty by a judge of violating election law by opening ballots by herself behind closed doors instead of doing it in front of witnesses as the law specifies.
Actually, here’s my quick analysis that shows Scott would still have won, but Nelson did indeed lose a lot of votes in Broward.
Florida Statewide:
Total Votes for Governor: 8,217,818
Total Votes for Senator: 8,183,795
Difference: .4%
Broward County:
Total Votes for Governor: 708,955
Total Votes for Senator: 683,963
Difference: 3.5%
This would suggest that approx. 3.1% of voters in Broward (approx. 22,000 votes) missed the Senate box.
Scott got 30.9% of the Broward vote, while Nelson got 68.9%, so if the “missed” votes in theory were going to vote the same way as the general population, Nelson would have picked up 9,500 votes if the ballot was the same design as the rest of Florida.
Which is not enough to overcome Scott’s 12,000 vote lead but it would have put him within striking distance.
However:
Before the hand recount, when people realized this was a ballot issue not a scanner issue, Florida Democrats may indeed have expected to pick up 9,500 votes in Broward.
Which may well explain why the machine vote increases in Scott’s vote were “accidentally” submitted late in one county and set aside in another, Because those increases could have been critical.
Also note:
If Democrats are equally incapable of following instructions for designing ballots and instructions for filling them out, it’s entirely possible that almost all of those 22,000 voters were Nelson supporters, in which case comprehensive Democratic incompetence could have cost him the election.
Which would support my observation that at least in this one case, stupidity is self correcting.
