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 Floridaโ€™s 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 โ€ฆ," the lawsuit reads.
