<What is the law/rule for keeping polls open well after the mandated close?> Darn good question. In the blurry hours, I had heard that there was a federal judge that ordered some polling stations to remain open, though the location didn't sink in at the time. Was this Florida? I can recall from past elections, there were instances where polling stations were kept open beyond the scheduled hour due to mechanical problems and/or long lines and those were uncontested. But these cases were not in Florida. Guess it's time, again, to dust off the Florida laws that no one thought would ever apply. jttmab
