Is this problem a sign that the ballots were set up differently as a sting? I don't get the complaint.
The lawsuit argues that Florida Secretary of State Ken Detzner's office could reject ballots on which a voter may have marked a selection in more than one way.
Such ballots may appear as overvotes or undervotes โ ballots on which a voters' selections either exceed or fall below the maximum number of selections allowed โ in vote-counting machines and therefore may have been overlooked by county election officials.
The Nelson campaign's lawsuit asks a judge to ensure that such ballots are counted should the Senate race go to a hand recount.
"The State will incur no burden in counting the votes of voters who clearly indicated their definite choice for Floridaโs U.S. Senate race, but may not have done so in the same manner for every race on the ballot or may not have cancelled-out erroneous overvotes using written words โฆ," the lawsuit reads.
