One thing has become very apparent with the New Democratic party. They are very poor losers who will do ANYTHING to get their agendas moving forward.
Trump says some really dumb things, but make no mistake, Obama and his way left movement created and fosters the huge divide in this country.
Libs, please leave this thread pronto. RBG needs ribs.

This is ridiculous. There needs to be some sort of IQ test in order to vote.
"A CNN analysis of votes cast in Broward County suggests that ballot design could be responsible for a substantial difference in the number of votes cast between the race for governor and the race for senator in Florida, meaning thousands of voters there may have missed their chance to weigh in on the still-undecided Senate race. The placement of the Senate race on the ballot could have made it easy to overlook."
This is a case of people not even knowing what they are voting for going to the polls. If you are an informed voter (or one with minimal intelligence), you know whether or not you voted for a particular race.

It's going to be a long 6 years for Trump in prison from early 2019 until he dies.
Thoughts and prayers for Mein Trump!

A GOP governor (Jeb Bush) removed the duly elected Broward Elections Supervisor, and replaced her with his hand-picked GOP appointee who still there today. A subsequent GOP Governor (Rick Scott) put Broward's elections process under state supervision. A GOP-dominated state administration was and is supervising Broward's elections.
And now the Trump/Scott narrative is that its a Democratic plot to rob Scott of his victory over Nelson?

Rick Scott's qualifications:
He was the CEO of HCA when they plead guilty to the then largest Medicare fraud in history. He claimed he didn't know that almost 30% of his company's profit was from fraud. When they "fired" him, they gave him 10 million in cash, 300 million in stock and kept him on as a consultant at 1 million a year.

Ignorance doesn't care if you are a Republican, Democrat, Independent or other.
Bottom line is that these people shouldn't be allowed to vote if they can't comprehend the ballot. smh

There is an obvious flaw with the Broward county ballot when you compare the results to the other counties:

25K voters skipping the senate race? While the other counties basically had an equal percent. But you just think they are dumber in that county.

CNN sure does.
Maybe the designer of their ballots aren't that sharp but I don't think voter IQ would be such a huge drop off for one county.
There's nothing they can do about that for 2018.

injectinf vagueness in the voting process is another method of suppression. Voting should be made as easy as possible, without any added confusion and the assumption is that anyone who could barely read should be able to cast a vote without confusion.
IMO - when there are clear discrepancies in the governor to senate vote count that sum to a number greater than the vote difference between the candidates running there should be a recount and a revote if still indeterminable. That would be a fair democratic system. If is not the fault of any 85 year old with poor faculties that the ballot was designed to yield errors.
But wait for it - we will see the same old arguments, that these are the rules, the people in charge had authority to manage voting this way, or that tough luck it’s water under the bridge - all insane excuses.

How does one not know they didn't vote for such an important race? If you are not intelligent enough to navigate the ballot that was on CNN and also not realize you didn't vote in a high profile race, but really meant to, perhaps you shouldn't be voting in the first place.

How exactly was the listing of that race on that ballot vague?

Hi Flagpole
The rate the election count in Broward County is going, Gillum and Nelson are going to end up with more votes than HRC had for the entire Presidential election.

One or two things happened in that county: 1) machines did not read senate votes well due to calibration or other technical issues; and/or 2) placement of senator selection on ballot was no bueno.
I gather from the below photo that a lot of people would have skipped the instructions and started right at the top of the second column and completely missed the senator box on bottom left. Alternatively, the placement of the senate race may have led to poor machine reading. Regardless of your opinion, there's no question there was some major flaw preventing thousands of votes from either being cast or counted. Or do you believe that just in that one county all those people decided they didnt want to vote for a senator, just governor and others?

By that logic we should just void votes for trump on the basis that a lot of his supporters are high high school dropouts with low IQs. Again, if the standard is every gets a chance to vote then it needs to be set up to accomodate that basic need. Ballots have to be designed to make it very intuitive, eliminating oversight opportunities. I’ve also read that their ballot design is not in line with best practices - will post that if I can track it down again.
