Deleting evidence seems to fit the "pattern" 🍋💯🍋
Broward County Supervisor of Elections Brenda C. Snipes said Tuesday night that 634,000 votes had been cast in the county. But by Thursday night, Snipes was claiming 712,840 ballots had been cast.
Broward County officials blatantly disregarded the Florida law requiring that all vote-by-mail and absentee ballots be accounted for within 30 minutes of the polls closing.
On Wednesday morning, Palm Beach County Supervisor of Elections Susan Bucher stopped filing updates of the vote count with the Florida Department of State as required by law. The law mandates that she report every 45 minutes until all the election results are in.
Instead, Bucher dropped news of the 15,000 surprise ballots she’s counted since Tuesday night at any time she chose.
Besides telling the state to get lost, Bucher is also refusing to allow designated official political party representatives into the ballot counting area. She’s kept them isolated behind a glass wall where they can’t see and hear all that’s going on – yet another violation of Florida election law.
Even more troubling, Bucher has copied vote-by-mail ballots that she claims are damaged, but without allowing witnesses to observe the process as required by Florida law. In fact, she explicitly denied requests for witnesses to see her staff at work.

Just destroy all the "damaged" ballots (ie- the uncounted R -heavy ballots) and replace them with carefully hand-filled ones, which better reflect the intentions of the voters in the county.
Easy peasy. No observers.

Honest-to-God SERIOUS question:
If they have violated the court order...WHY haven't they been arrested?
