Warning to Florida Democrats: Presidential election recount is coming in 2020

[TexasTowelie]

The new voter protection director for Florida Democrats told party activists on Saturday that they should assume there will be a recount during next year’s presidential election.

"We are going to be prepared," Brandon Peters told a packed room of Democratic activists at the state party's Leadership Blue 2019 meeting at Walt Disney World in Orlando.

Peters, who was hired by the state party last month, said there will be teams of volunteers trained in how to monitor county canvassing boards for recount problems around the state, should one take place in the 2020 presidential election.

Florida became famous for recounts after the 2000 presidential election, and last year there were recounts in three statewide races. The Florida Democratic Party is the second state Democratic party in the nation to hire a voter protection director, behind the Georgia Democratic Party.

2. ""We are going to be prepared,""

This was a direct shot across the bow for Broward and Palm Beach supervisors of elections.
The last election was a classic Charlie Foxtrot when it came to the recount. It's like the people did not know what to do and in a timely manner.
Votes were lost due to incompetence..
Hopefully this wont happen again... Practice, practice practice till you have it right...
