Florida law enforcement agency says it is not investigating county election officials
The Florida Department of Law Enforcement has not launched an investigation into election officials in Broward and Palm Beach counties because it has not found credible allegations of voter fraud, a spokesperson for the agency said Friday.
The announcement contrasts from Thursday night, when the agency said that it planned to investigate officials in Broward and Palm Beach after Florida's Republican Gov. Rick Scott, who is running to oust Sen. Bill Nelson (D-Fla.), called for a probe into elections fraud there.
"Right now, we’re working with the Department of State and we will investigate if there are any credible allegations of fraud or criminal activity," FDLE spokesperson Gretl Plessinger told The Hill, adding that no such allegations have surfaced yet.
Scott requested the investigation in a hastily called news conference Thursday night, in which he announced that his campaign and the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) had filed a lawsuit against Broward Supervisor of Elections Brenda Snipes and Palm Beach Supervisor of Elections Susan Bucher.
