48. I'm concerned about the spread of misinformation

Your brother doesn't know what Florida election law in 2000 was. His claim that Florida election law in 2000 allowed for a statewide count of the uncounted votes is a false claim about Florida election law. I know what Florida election law was in 2000 because I worked under that Florida election law for 15 years. Your brother has no such experience and is spreading misinformation about Florida election law in 2000. That's why I'm challenging your posts. This issue isn't about opinion, it's about actual facts again, Florida election law did not allow for a statewide count of the uncounted votes. In 2000, Florida election law gave the responsibility for counting the votes to Florida's 67 counties. This is an actual fact that your brother doesn't understand because he's never lived in Florida and worked on election campaigns there like I have so he has no idea what Florida election law was in 2000. Again, this is a fact not an opinion..
