POLL:CONGRESS: Remove Brenda Snipes from Supervising the Broward County, FL Vote Count
Broward County, Florida election supervisor Brenda Snipes has had a long history of both criminal activity and incompetent behavior when it comes to her function of overseeing vote counts.
As reported in the Sun Sentinel, in 2016 Brenda Snipes ordered the Canova-Wasserman Schultz ballots destroyed 12 months after the election, even though federal and state laws require preservation for 22 months. Snipes did so even though a lawsuit over the ballots was pending. She called it a mistake.
May 2018, Circuit Court Judge Raag Singhal found Snipes guilty of breaking both state and federal law, yet Snipes still managed to preside over the 2018 midterm elections vote count for Broward County.
On election day 2016, Snipes and Broward County was mysteriously late to report their vote count.
Now in 2018, Snipes and Broward County appear to be up their old shenanigans once again.
According to a lawsuit filed by Scott Nelson, two days after voting has concluded, the Supervisor Of Elections is unwilling to disclose records revealing how many electors voted, how many ballots have been canvassed, and how many ballots remain to be canvassed. The lack of transparency raises substantial concerns about the validity of the election process.
We demand Congress remove Brenda Snipes from her capacity as Broward County Election Supervisor immediately.

Illegal border crossers now ineligible for asylum, White House says
15 hours ago
The Trump administration announced Thursday that migrants who attempt to cross the U.S.-Mexico border illegally will not be eligible to claim asylum under a new rule meant to crack down on “meritless” claims.
The rule, which prevents migrants from claiming asylum if they do not do so at an official border crossing, is the latest attempt by the White House to handle a surge in migration to the U.S. from the Central American countries of Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador.
President Trump is expected to formally enact the rule in a presidential proclamation Friday and will invoke the same powers he used to push through a version of the travel ban that was upheld by the Supreme Court, according to senior administration officials.
“Consistent with our immigration laws, the President has the broad authority to suspend or restrict the entry of aliens into the United States if he determines it to be in the national interest to do so,” Acting Attorney General Matt Whitaker and Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen said in a joint statement. ” … Our asylum system is overwhelmed with too many meritless asylum claims from aliens who place a tremendous burden on our resources, preventing us from being able to expeditiously grant asylum to those who truly deserve it. Today, we are using the authority granted to us by Congress to bar aliens who violate a Presidential suspension of entry or other restriction from asylum eligibility.”
