Brenda Snipes’ Office Declares RECOUNT But Snipes Skips Press Conference

Embattled Broward County election supervisor Brenda Snipes refused to address the public at her office’s press conference Saturday following a hearing on the vote-counting process at the Board of Elections.

The search is on for provisional ballots as Democrats refuse to accept the election results, and now the Broward County office will begin a recount of four races including the Florida governor’s race and Senate race.

CNBC reports:

“A motion was approved in Broward County on Saturday to begin a recount in four Florida races, including the governor and senate races, CNN reported.

County elections supervisors had until noon Saturday to submit results.

As the deadline arrived, Republican former U.S. Rep. Ron DeSantis led Democratic Tallahassee Mayor Andrew Gillum by less than 0.5 percentage points in the governor’s race, which would required a machine recount of ballots.

In the Senate race, Republican Gov. Rick Scott’s lead over Democratic incumbent Bill Nelson was less than 0.25 percentage points, which would require a hand recount of ballots in which tabulation machines couldn’t detect a vote.”
