Florida state law provides for automatic recounts when the margin of victory for a given office or measure is equal to or less than 0.5 percent of the total votes cast for that office or measure. If the margin of victory is equal to or less than 0.25 percent, a hand recount is ordered (automatic tabulators are otherwise used). The relevant state statutes do not appear to provide for candidate-initiated or voter-initiated recounts. For more information about recount procedures in Florida, see Section 102.166 of the Florida Statutes.[3][4]

Concessions mean nothing if the Florida law is followed, meaning DeSantis is governor-elect.

I think we’ve all seen, courtesy of black robed Obama appointees, that the will of the Florida legislature is no obstacle and can be ignored at will, and instead we should be ruled by what these appointees decide is “the right thing to do.”
