How does effing DeSantis know the votes were not manipulated in "two" Florida counties?

Did anyone actually look? Did the FBI actually look?

To my knowledge, no one has actually looked, anywhere. Except maybe effing Stein in a few select places, and I am beginning to suspect she only half - assed recounted to cover Pootey's tracks.

The thugs are taking away our country, peeps.

Streets, anyone? Anyone? Buehler? ...

Since he is now saying he signed a NDA with the feds prohibiting him from disclosing which counties were hacked. First off, since when a governor bows to the feds with an NDA? I thought repubs were for state rights..

I bet these two counties are those that tipped the election in favor of rick Scott vs Nelson and De Sanctis vs Gillum.

This needs to be investigated.

Dade and Broward counties in Florida combined have 4.6 million people. Trump "won" Florida by 113,000 votes.

Imagine you stand in line for hours to vote only to find out you have been "purged" from the voter rolls. How many people will have the patience to stay there and fill out a provisional ballot? Maybe half? 1/3? 1/4? Fewer than that even?

Imagine those were the two counties and remember that Clinton won them by almost 600,000 votes out of about 1.8 million votes in total. Imagine if thousands of voters were purged from the rolls?

I bet there was more than 2 counties in Florida that the Russians were into
but these 2 counties were no doubt targeted by Russia based on the data
analytics that the Trump Campaign gave them.

Are any Dems getting involved with this? Any Dems or other organizations trying to get this information?
