Florida is always stolen before one vote is cast. Here's how.

Gerrymandering. Scrubbed voter lists. Ex felons being denied the right to vote. Broken machines in some counties. Intentionally confusing paper ballots in other counties. Overseas military ballots ignored. Mailed in ballots tossed out because people didn't use their middle initial, or someone decided their signature didn't look right. Robocalls telling people the wrong election day and/or their wrong polling place.

The Republicans have turned election theft into an art form here in Florida. Nonetheless, so many Democrats turned out this year so as to bring the results into question and requiring of a recount.

The reality is that Florida is a blue state and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Republican theft machine.

And then there's this. If the Democrat Senate candidate, Nelson, ends up winning, the Republican controlled Senate can ignore it and swear in the Republican, Scott. How is this possible??? I guess we have to ask Mitch McConnell who wants the Republican, Scott, to represent Florida in the Senate. And McConnell doesn't believe in any of that vote-count shit.

Seems we are forever politically fucked down here on the peninsula called Florida.

Heat. Humidity. Hurricanes. No democratically elected representatives. Hi from Florida. C'mon down!

I think the south had pioneered the methods to cheat an election. Today these same people are called republicans. Now they use modern methods to fool the public. The problem is we can use modern methods to uncover their false ways. The evil ones will try and try so that they can continue their cheating ways in public as government members.....I think these people would be so happy to have a civil war so RUSSIA could be happy......
