Florida Governor Rick Scott Sues Over Delayed Ballot Updates

Gov. Rick Scott (R) has filed lawsuits against the election supervisors in two of Florida’s Democratic strongholds over the lack of transparency in vote counting for the midterm elections.

Two separate lawsuits were filed on Nov. 8 against Broward County Elections Supervisor Brenda Snipes (pdf) and Palm Beach County Elections Supervisor Susan Bucher (pdf) 48 hours after the midterm election polls closed.
