TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — The Latest on Florida’s election recount (all times local):
2:40 p.m.
Florida’s Republican Gov. Rick Scott says incumbent Democratic Sen. Bill Nelson called him to concede defeat in their extremely tight race.
Scott issued a statement Sunday saying Nelson “graciously conceded” their Senate race shortly after the state’s recount ended. The final results show Scott defeated Nelson by just over 10,000 votes out of 8 million cast. Nelson is scheduled to release a videotaped statement later Sunday.
The defeat ends Nelson’s lengthy political career. The three-term incumbent was first elected to the U.S. Senate in 2000. Before that he served six terms in the U.S. House and as state treasurer and insurance commissioner for six years.
Scott spent more than $60 million of his own money on ads that portrayed Nelson as out-of-touch and ineffective. Nelson responded by questioning Scott’s ethics and saying he would be under the sway of President Donald Trump.

Scott only won because Nelson has done absolutely nothing as senator, if it were another democrat they would have won that seat

They are already playing the race card. Typical Demo tactic.

That's despite Howdy Doody Nelson pulling 90% of the black vote.

That's kind of old news, announced a couple days ago.

This is how local governments work, hire the wrong people for the wrong reasons and bang - clusterfuck.

How our forefathers saw this when they decided on the Republic is amazing to me actually but then again I lived in the world I live in now and didn't in that world. Aside from plumbing and cell phones things then probably couldn't have been much different.

She was forced out by democrats, they know this was the last straw and the hammer is coming down.

Florida will be VERY closely watched from this point on.

Broward is really going to be pissed, either Rick Scott will appoint her replacement before he leaves office or De Santis will when he is sworn in.

While she was appointed by Jebe Bush.....after that she was elected.


There is a simple solution. Since all know its the 2 party system. Pass a law that people working elections can't be from either Party. Or into Politics.
