3 PM UPDATE
Florida’s Secretary of State Ken Detzner officially ordered machine recounts in three statewide races: US Senate, governor and agriculture commissioner.
Vote totals for each of those races places them under the .5 percent margin that triggers an automatic machine recount, the website states.
Results from the machine recount are due to the Secretary of State by 3 p.m. Thursday, according to the website.
Here’s a copy of the Secretary of State’s announcement of the recounts:
The first unofficial set of returns for the U.S. Senate, Governor and Commissioner of Agriculture races has met the statutory threshold to trigger a machine recount. As required under Florida law, a statewide machine recount has been ordered by the Secretary of State. The orders are attached.
The results of the machine recount (also referred to as the second unofficial set of returns) are due no later than 3 p.m. on Thursday, November 15 to the Florida Department of State.
Florida’s timeline for the reporting and certification of election results, which includes the process for possible recounts for any races on the ballot, is available in detail on the Division of Elections website.
For additional background information on the recount process, please see Sections 102.141(7) and 102.166, Fla. Stat. (2013), and Rule 1S-2.031, Fla. Admin. Code.
Once the results from the machine recounts are in, if any races are separated by less than .25 percent of the vote, as the US Senate and agriculture commission races currently are, the Secretary of State will order manual, hand recounts for those races, said Department of State spokeswoman Sarah Revell.

Rather confusing or mistitled post
Isn’t this a “Constitutional Crisis?”
Old Post. Come on man.
Yes, it is confusing......
Gambling! I’m shocked sir! Shocked I say!
Trump should call the U.S. Marshals in, seize everything, kick ass and take names.
Sure looks like it to me.
...and no signs of Russia.
“Rather confusing or mistitled post”
You got that right. Maybe if I went to the article I could sort it out better, but I’ll wait to find out from another source.
Just watched a WSJ assistant editor on FOX call Rubio a partisan, said Trump is angry and saying falsehoods “again” because there was a blue wave, dismissed all Florida irregularities and even lied that in 2000 those cut W’s way and elected him president. Anybody remember any of that cutting Bush’s way? Disgraceful. And unchallenged on Fox.
Send in the Federal Marshalls and lock the entire county government down.
“An emergency hearing is set for 8:30 a.m. Saturday”
Yes I never heard a darn word about what the result of that hearing was.
Sorry about the confusion. I wish CFP had a better format. Usually they are more focused but they seemed to have strayed from the topic.
Law enforcement at any level serves the government only. It’s up to patriots. Crickets are on us, now.
Sure does .. it's called Floriduh.
OK, contemplating of court? What is the remedy? All of this is so much BS, the system in the hands of Democrats is not to be trusted.
the election is being stolen and the pubs have got to fight with everything they got.....
Make the Floriduh comments all you want but this concerns every State in the U.S. This is the testing grounds for Democrat fraud and if they succeed in Florida, look for it to occur elsewhere. Looks like Arizona is on board.
No offense to FL freepers intended, FRiend .. I understand completely.
We seem to be rushing headlong toward Liberty Trees all across the country.
