🚨 Miami Dade #FloridaRecount results, per Christina White, Sup of Elections:
Machine recount of 813,000+ ballots = 96 fewer ballots than on Election Day (.01% variance )
“There is always a change ... because of the human factor”
@WPLGLocal10
White credits staff for making Miami Dade recount issue-free and on-time- “It does feel good to make our county shine in the process...”
The 24-hour-a-day operation began with an all-nighter reading 15K vote-by-mail ballots that came in on Election Day.
@WPLGLocal10
Attention now turns to the imminent hand count...waiting for that order from Sec of State (on or after 3pm state machine-count deadline)
Miami Dade has already separated, in sealed bins, the under- and over-votes for that... Will start with Senate race, than Ag race.
@WPLGLocal10
Just pulled out the iPhone calculator ...
In the Miami Dade machine recount, each candidate lost a couple hundred votes:
Scott -197
Nelson -257
DeSantis -206
Gillum -228
Caldwell -163
Fried -191
Insignificant changes...
@WPLGLocal10 #FloridaRecount
Per Miami Dade Mayor - There are 744 Vote By Mail ballots with mismatched signatures. Per judicial order today - voters can “cure” that by proving ID until Saturday ...
