The AG commissioner got overturned in the recount. Well, she (Fried) is leading right now and is expected to win. Weird stuff down here in Florida

Crazy, Rubio is accusing Broward election officials of cheating. But to be fair, they do have a history of breaking the law and messing stuff up.

This is crazy but in the Arizona Senate race between Sinema and McSally, there are still over 650,000 votes uncounted. Only 75% of the votes are in. The spread is only 17,000 with McSally in the lead but this is still very much up in the air. Stay tuned.
 
Broward won’t even release how many they have to count, they’re just dumping thousands of ballots every few hours since early Wednesday morning. But people are estimating it around 25,00/30,000 fwiw
 
actually not - it's right at average gains for the party out of power.
This turned out not to be the case... Democrats are going to pick up 35 seats in the House. That is the most gains in the House in one year for Democrats since 1974. Considering the number of gerrymandered districts they were up against? This was a blue wave.. You jumped the gun just a bit, on election night.
 
She illegally destroyed ballots in 2016. Now the Florida GOP worries she's trying to steal a Senate seat

Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., is angry. He has reason to be.

Counties must report early voting and mail ballot voting within 30 minutes of polls closing, according to Florida state law, Rubio complained on Twitter Thursday. But Broward County has not reported those votes or the number of votes left to be counted, more than 40 hours after the polling station closed on Election Day.

Republicans should be worried, and it isn’t just because Broward County is a Democratic stronghold that could tip the results of the still-contested races for Senate and even perhaps governor. It is because Broward County has a history of destroying ballots and skewing races.

Democratic Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz was staving off a primary challenge Tim Canova when his campaign noticed certain irregularities in the way paper ballots were being counted. An ugly court battle and two years later, a judge ruled that the Broward elections supervisor had illegally destroyed ballots in the race.

The supervisor’s name? Brenda Snipes, who claimed that the trashing of the ballots was just a “mistake.” The current supervisor’s name? Still Snipes, who won’t say how long it will take to finish counting leftover ballots or how many there are. Unlike two years ago, the races in question for Senate and governor are both extremely competitive.

... and Sinema is now showing a slight lead. Still a lot of votes to count though. I can't believe how slow Arizona is... it is ridiculous. Their polls closed damn near 48 hours ago.
Arizona and Broward County, FL are completely ridiculous.
