Seems to me that the only reason for all this panic is because y’all have something to hide, Ricky. God I hope we find it.

Denied with prejudice or can they appeal? Fuckers wont care past the 3pm thursday recount deadline anyways, they’re just trying to set roadblocks to the counting.

So what happens if one of the candidates commits large-scale election fraud but the election still gets certified? You have to wait for the long arm of the law?

He’s going to lose and there’s nothing he can do about it but sulk. Oh well.

About time this criminal got slapped down.

So far, he’s 0-2. First the Dept of Law Enforcement shot down his claims of fraud, and now a court has done the same.

What Scott is really trying to do is rile up his base and delegitimize a Nelson win. He’s also proving how petulant he is. DeSantis hasn’t said much (which is a little surprising), but he doesn’t seem to have a lot going on upstairs.

In any case, Scott is setting himself up for a massive, crushing loss.

OT, but does anybody know what’s going on here today with all the comments sections closed, and new morning articles appearing just before noon? I mean, WTF? I sent an email and didn’t hear a word back. Seems everybody’s hanging out and lazing like Trump.

There’s a brief note on the homepage that TPM is aware of the problem and actively working on it.

I sent an email before 9AM PST and it is now 2:10 and not a word from the site issues folks. Josh does have something on his edblog saying they are working on it.

Expecting criminal intent were you? The things Rethugs demand when they’re afraid they just might lose.

Tutter was appointed to the bench by JEBya.

Republican - check
BushCo - check

Toad oughtta not crapped all over Mister Low Energy, is all.

Also, it court settings, it’s kinda important to be able to point to a "preliminary showing’, that is, to be able to bring actual evidence to court showing or at least supporting the doing of actual evil - as opposed to, say, Toad’s Tweets.

DeSantis’ margin isn’t within the manual recount threshold and Scott is making plenty of noise for the both of them. I wonder, the Senate undervote ballots that are being manually evaluated, do they also check for governor votes?

Rick Scott is a maniacal idiot who truly seems to be in a panic. Look at his eyes and his face. He looks like a deer in the headlights.
