In reply to the discussion: Marco Rubio: Democrats Are Trying to Steal Florida Senate Race by Counting All the Votes [View all]LisaL
(44,973 posts)10. I am not clear what exactly he is suing for.
He's accused them of fraud and is asking for law enforcement to investigate them.
"Standing on the steps of the Governors Mansion, Mr. Scott announced on Thursday night that his Senate campaign had sued the Democratic elections supervisors of Broward and Palm Beach Counties. He then asked the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, which he helps oversee as governor, to investigate them."

Not important, but it was Katherine Harris. Probably the most obvious case of one person

Stopping the vote count when you get the result you want, a Florida tradition since 2000.
