Broward County still can't get its voting right.

I live here and it ceaselessly pisses me off that we can't run an election to save our lives.

Multiple shortcomings contributed to a problem-plagued 2018 election in Broward County, many of which were on public display while a national cable TV audience waited for Florida to recount votes in elections for governor and U.S. Senate. A controversial audit 18 months later is now detailing even more failings.

Among the issues raised in the audit:

Half of Broward County’s election precincts reported more ballots cast than the number of voters. Backlogs in processing mail ballots snarled reporting of results.
Confusing ballot design may have led thousands of voters to inadvertently skip an important contest.
Money was wasted on unneeded blank ballots, which weren’t adequately tracked and were eventually destroyed.
After election day, auditors found the recount was plagued by poor planning, inadequate staffing and equipment, and poor quality control.

The butterfly ballot will forever live in infamy.

3. What I worry about is Republicans stepping in to stink up the process by

throwing in illegal ballots that might confuse.

4. Here's something else:

The auditors said the elections office provided a list of 18 non-citizens on the voter rolls. More than 1.2 million people are registered to vote in the county. The audit didn’t find evidence of fraud in connection with the non-citizens.

Now it's not a big deal because they found no fraud.
But it is A deal because details matter, and details can lose elections - especially when THEY COUNT!

It's BS like this that give the regressives grist for their propaganda mills.

5. And sometimes "poor planning" is planned.

6. That's what happens when you allow Rethugs to do things.

Kick the Rethugs out and we can easily fix the voting process.
