FL Judge Orders Camps to Tone Down the Recount Rhetoric

Florida county officials are expected to submit their final vote tallies by 3 p.m. Thursday, so we can finally declare winners in both the Senate and gubernatorial races. State law requires that races with less than a .05 percent margin get a recount. Republicans, however, who are currently in the lead in both races, see no need for the recounts.
Florida Gov. Rick Scott accused Broward Supervisor of Elections Brenda Snipes and Palm Beach Supervisor of Elections Susan Bucher of “trying to steal the election.” There's certainly reason to believe Snipes is operating under an ideological motive. Her office unlawfully destroyed ballots in the 2016 Democratic primary election with Debbie Wasserman Schultz. Scott is one of many Floridians to demand Snipes be removed from office.
Broward Circuit Judge Tuter is well aware of the stakes of these elections, but he ordered both sides to be careful what they say about their opponents because the country is watching.
