Hi Ibexx,

FL election-related statute, 102.661 (5)(C), was the determining factor in today's FL Supreme Court ruling.

My interpretation is:

The Secretary of State (for Florida) did not abide by the FL Statute, and thus, did not appropriately apply discretion per today's SC ruling.

Here is the Florida Statute: 102.661 (5)(C)

(5) If the manual recount indicates an error in the vote tabulation which could affect the outcome of the election, the county canvassing board shall:
(c) Manually recount all ballots.
------------------
The definition of "error" is defined in 102.661 (4) (d), which is: they did a 1% manual recount of the ballots cast and found an "error in vote tabulation which could affect the outcome of the election"

The SOS issued "notices" to canvassing boards, in an attempt to unlawfully block the county canvassing boards that were executing on this Statute.

Regards,
Amy J
