Scott implemented a should be illegal system of voter signature matches which ensures that older people who registered young can't vote. The percent of rejected mailed in ballots was up over 1000% from 2012 due to his treachery. Then when that wasn't sufficient, had 42 boxes of ballots in very heavily Democratic Broward county held up and not counted. Those votes would have put Nelson over the top, but Scott got them disallowed by a friendly rw packed court.
