Umm.. Yeah, exactly why are people now saying Arizona and Florida are won by the Dems when clearly the GOP won both by several thousands of votes and even CNN has reported 99% of the votes already tallied two days ago..? Sounds rather fishy to me.. Or am I missing something obvious here?

99% means reporting counties/precincts.  Not 99% of the vote.  So Broward may be 13% of all ballots. but may be one of 100 counties or 1%.

345,000 votes still coming in from Maricopa and Pima.

Some 30,000 votes missing for the Senate in Broward, FL as well, plus mail, absentee etc.

Democrat election fraud in broward county florida (Miami)

Ursala also goes by the name Brenda Snipes, has refused to say how many ballots are to be counted and still are counting and all of a sudden democrats are gaining from mystery ballots as she will now be investigated, she has already had issues with destroying ballots and leaving dead people on the voting registrations. the normal democrat voters.

the fix is in here in Florida. lots of people are pissed. this will not lead to anything good. unrest will be one small part of it.

Your claim would be believable if Florida wasn't systemically late with their voting results.  Like legendary. Even on nights where they aren't closer than the margin of error.

Looks like the Dems are trying to steal the elections in Arizona and Florida. Coming up with thousands upon thousands of ballots days after the vote was over, when these ballots should have all been collected and counted on Tues, Wed at the very latest. And surprise, surprise, the vast majority of them favor Dems. Pathetic. I hope Gov Scott wins his lawsuit against this voter fraud.

The good news is, with hundreds of thousands of ballots being forged and/or stolen and then smuggled into the system, there will be plenty of evidence that this is happening.  Justice will prevail.  Unless, of course, it's nothing but a right wing fever dream.

Since I use to live in broward county when I lived in Florida I can tell you that some crazy gerrymandering crap is going on down there.  Since I still have family in the state, my brother was telling me how a lot of the public poll locations changed this year to gated communities.  In order to vote, you had to show your ID at the gate and in a few of them you had to leave your ID at the gate in order to enter.  Also locations that use to be easy for people to get to were changed so that you have to travel much farther to get to the polling station.

Saw that too.  Crazy what some elections supervisors are trying to get away with.

More breaking news.....70,000 standard ballots are still to be counted in Broward (plus the aforementioned provisional, absentee and mail in ballots).  If they align with the voting ratio of the known ballots, Florida just flipped both senate and governors seats.

Oh it gets even better

This is also in Broward county.  It could have been an accident but when you got other crap happening it doesn't good when stuff like this takes place.

That's not gerrymandering btw, gerrymandering is drawing the district lines to favor one party over the other (grouping democrats together into 1 congressional district, rest being republican). What you have right there is classic case of voter suppression. Trying to make voting as hard as possible for those who oppose you.

You are right, I was using the incorrect term.  This would be voter suppression.

Isn't it funny that Republicans are constantly accused of voter fraud and suppression, and here we have what seems like a pretty obvious case of Democratic voter-suppression in Florida.

The problem with voter ID laws are that ID cards are not free. If they give free ID cards and implement voter ID laws that would be great.
