Trump: ‘Infected’ ballots make a fair count impossible in Florida

Published



President Trump claimed Monday an honest vote tally in Florida’s races for governor and the U.S. Senate is no longer possible because the ballots have been “infected” by voting irregularities.

“The Florida Election should be called in favor of Rick Scott and Ron DeSantis in that large numbers of new ballots showed up out of nowhere, and many ballots are missing or forged.
