Broward County missed the Thursday 3 p.m. deadline for machine recount results by two minutes, initially appearing to cost Republican Gov. Rick Scott nearly 800 votes in his bid for a Senate seat.

The missed deadline came just hours after Brenda Snipes, the county’s supervisor of elections, who has violated the state’s Constitution and illegally mixed in rejected ballots with good ballots, bragged that she never missed a deadline.
