With no path to victory in sight, Dems in FL and GA continue to fight against election results.
Democrats in Florida have now lost the machine recount in elections
for both governor and senator, yet they refuse to concede and continue
to campaign as if the election were still going. The result of the
Senate election is that Republican Gov. Rick Scott beat Democrat Sen.
Bill Nelson by just under 13,000 votes. By Florida law, this narrow
margin trigged a second recount, this one by hand, so one can reasonably
argue that Nelson’s waiting for the end of the second recount is at
least understandable.
However, in the race for governor, Republican Ron DeSantis maintained
more than a 33,000 vote margin over Democrat Andrew Gillum after the
machine recount, which is beyond the minimum threshold required for
triggering a second hand recount. And yet Gillum still refuses to
concede defeat. Why?
