Trump will begin his attacks on any judges that rule against him very soon, and all judges in our system should take that into consideration . He wants trump justice , which is his way always, and not by the rule of law.

If Scott suffers because of it, GOOD.

Florida should work with ALL counties to:

Develop a standard statewide voting system, including counting machines. A system that can't be corrupted.

Develop a statewide ballot format

Limit amendments to no more than 5 per election.

Supply a specific number of voting stations and counting machines per X number of voters. No more games with more machines per voter in certain places, almost none in others.

Set a standard early voting number of days, start and end dates and start and end times statewide. 15 continuous early voting days ending a few days before Election Day will work.
