What kind of idiot wrote that article:

“The complexity of the tax was immediately apparent.”

Uh, sorry - WaPo... the work is “task.”

One particularly curious ballot had the bubble next to Nelson’s name filled in, but also listed a write-in candidate named “Rick Nelson.” The Broward canvassing judges decided that one should count for Nelson, even though it seemed to conflate the Democrat’s last name with the Republican’s first name. They applied a concept called the “rule of consistency,” noting that the same voter had also filled in the bubble next to gubernatorial candidate Gillum’s name while also listing Gillum as a write-in candidate.
