Gillum-DeSantis race now in recount range

Votes from South Florida keep coming in for Gillum at 2:1. We're gonna have to wait to know the outcome on this one.

Just had a Gore-Bush flashback...

Anyone who wins Florida will now be called fraudulent. Is there any legal way to have both sides represented while they count the outstanding votes? And going forward, remove incompetent people from the job of supervising elections?
And after nearly 20 years, can we finally fix Florida? We are a 1st world country and cant even handle elections?

The “blue wave” took a little longer to crest than usual, but after several days of vote counting it looks like Democrats beat the historical average for the midterm elections.

With more races called since Election Night, Democrats have netted 30 seats in the House and are leading in five others.

On average, the midterms mean the White House, on average in all 25 non-presidential cycles in the last century, loses 29 allies in the House. It appears House Democrats are just past that benchmark, outpacing the gains of at least 12 other midterm election cycles since 1918.

Only way to fix Florida:
Dig a mile wide ditch between the curve in the panhandle and Jacksonville, annex half into Georgia and half into Alabama and wave goodbye to the sinkhole peninsula.

More Florida fiascos...
If you see the attachment pic, none of the overseas ballots have been counted. In any county. So do they only count them if it comes down to the wire? And if I were stationed overseas and saw that my vote didnt count in Florida, I'd be furious.

On a side note, I had to call Seminole county multiple times to unregister. They were sending me ballots - to my home address in Mobile, Alabama, for years.

But...but...counting “uncounted” ballots is stealing the election.
I can’t say on here what I think of Scott (or Rubio or anyone who supports them or Trump); but Scott does know about stealing.

They should count all the uncounted votes. But they need oversight. They cant seem to get this right.

It’s not so much the oversight they lack, as it is the process itself.
I saw three women sitting behind a table deciding whether a ballot was legitimate or not. In this day and age, I can think of a multitude of words to describe that, all accurate and none of them nice.

well, it seems like blatant voter suppression efforts aren't going to be as easy as they have historically been.

GOP: We must verify every vote to make sure illegals aren't voting!!!
Also GOP 2018: Why are we trying to count every vote?!?!? Let's move on with our lives.
