TALLAHASSEE (CBSMiami/AP) — The embattled Broward County Elections Department completed the machine recount that could help determine the next senator and Governor in Florida, one of America’s top political battlegrounds.
However, those results were submitted two minutes past the 3 p.m. deadline and will not count.
Instead, the initial results submitted last Saturday will be considered the official numbers now.

Is this good or bad for our side?
Good news?
Excellent news.
So same applies to palm beach?
Convenient in that the original count was 779 votes worse for Scott.
terrible news. Scott gained a lot of votes in the recount.
They somehow lost 2000 votes during the recount.
So if the recount was the count that “counted” it would be 779 votes better for Scott than the original count.
In the grand scheme of things, it doesn’t make much difference.
What was the count last Saturday?
Good.
It would actually have been better for Scott if they used the recount numbers, as Broward showed -606 for Scott and -1385 for Nelson during the recount.
That was based on 2000 ballots that they had damaged during the recount and would have had to been “reproduced” and added at a later date.
Wait a minute. So the Deadline deadline was really a deadline?
Then that other one won’t count either?
Tks.
As long as Scott (and DeSantis) come out on top.
I'm sure the Crybaby Party will run to a tame Obama-appointed judge, and the black-robed tyrant will rule in accordance with his feelings instead of the law. This may go all the way to the Supreme Court before the thugs finally agree to follow the law. I'm okay with that as long as they don't steal a second US Senate seat this year. Their quota is one, and they already stole one in Arizona.
Wow.
Where were you in my wild years? You could have laid down the law and saved me and others a lot of grief!!
Hope life finds you well.
Doesnt’ really matter because they have to do a hand recount now anyway.
“Rat vote stealage still has some kinks to work out.
Scott picked up over 700 votes that will not be counted because broward county was INTENTIONALLY TWO MINUTES LATE.
