This was LONG past due!
Brenda Snipes is resigning, which is fantastic news for Broward County (and all of Florida). This news comes after it was revealed that they lost 2,000 ballots after the recount.
“It is true. She did send it,” said Burnadette Norris-Weeks, an attorney who works as counsel to the Supervisor of Elections Office.
Evelyn Perez-Verdia, a former office spokeswoman who left several years ago, said Sunday evening she was told by people in the office that the letter was sent “to Tallahassee” earlier in the day.
We don’t know her official last day yet, but it’s probably going to be within the first week of January.

Just to recap:
*They lost 2,000 ballots during machine recount
*Mixed invalid ballots with valid ones
*Missed a critical deadline
*Had to be forced by a judge to turn over public records
*Failed to report results on election night in a timely mannerSo yeah, a couple of tweaks.
