Rewriting election statutes doesn’t change the math.

  1. Last week, Florida voters elected me as their next U.S. Senator and now the ballots have been counted twice.… We need to put this election behind us, and it is time for Bill Nelson to respect the will of the voters and graciously bring this process to an end rather than proceed with yet another count of the votes — which will yield the same result, and bring more embarrassment to the state.
  2. Per Court: ‘Disenfranchisement of approximately 5,000 voters based on signature mismatch is a substantial burden.’” Likewise, in Georgia, the Stacey Abrams campaign was delighted with the decision of Obama appointee Steve Jones, who ruled late Wednesday that the state must make sure that each county's vote tally includes absentee ballots with missing or incorrect birth dates.
  3. U.S. District Judge Amy Totenberg ordered the secretary of state’s office to establish and publicize a hotline or website where voters can check whether their provisional ballots were counted and, if not, the reason why.… For counties with 100 or more provisional ballots, she ordered the secretary of state’s office to review, or have county election officials review, the eligibility of voters who had to cast a provisional ballot because of registration issues.
  4. Her ruling was the result of a suit filed before the election by Common Cause, which accused the former secretary of state of all manner of misdeeds, including “acting recklessly” when the Georgia voter registration database was allegedly found to be vulnerable to attacks.
  5. Walker is a happy partisan who salts his rulings with sarcastic editorial allusions to Governor Scott’s administration and whose wife has made campaign contributions to the governor’s Democratic opponent in the Florida Senate race, Democrat Bill Nelson.
  6. Insinuating that Florida’s infamous electoral ineptitude is somehow the governor’s fault, he growled, “We have been the laughing-stock of the world, election after election, and we chose not to fix this.” Perhaps if Walker and Obama’s other appointees spent less time creating loopholes for Democrats to exploit, and more time jailing sleazy election supervisors, it might stop.
  7. Despite the army of attorneys flown into the Sunshine State to assist in stealing the election on behalf of Bill Nelson — and the assistance of Obama-appointed judges — Scott appears to be gaining ground.
