That’s because they are a republican state that wants to do so. Democrat states could do this, but then they couldn’t cheat as easily.
The main reason elections are run much better in Florida Last cycle is DeSantis fired Brenda Sipes, and a couple other democratic crooks/hacks who ran elections in Broward, Dade, Palm Beach..He put in professionals to run it honestly. It was one of his first moves as governor.
One quibble with the article, it should point out democrats wanted a selective recount in 2000. As written it makes it sound like W was installed as POTUS and wasn’t the legitimate winner. Even press investigations after the fiasco concluded W would have won, only the margin would have changed.
I can’t believe there are little banana republics spread out all over America that are still counting “votes” from November 2022’s election.
Misleading title.
The counting is done in a day.
But the vote ballot generation is done for many days, early.
I could go on with the listed points in the article.
The biggest difference, IMHO, is that Florida says your ballot must be received BY ELECTION DAY to be counted. Period. States mail out ballots and give voters WEEKS to fill them out and mail or drop them off. If you can’t do it in time to arrive BY ELECTION DAY, then FU. You didn’t care enough to matter.
6. pre- and post-election audits;
The paper ballots are still counted by black box machines. Both the first count AND the audits.
Thanks for posting. I just sent this to my two state Reps and state Senator in Idaho telling them we need to adopt these reforms and that Idaho should be a leader, not a follower in election integrity.
