Caldwell Campaign Files Lawsuit to Preserve Integrity of Election

Posted on November 9, 2018

Attorneys for the Matt Caldwell Campaign filed a lawsuit in the 17th Judicial Circuit asking the court to protect the integrity of all ballots and all public records relating to the election for Commissioner of Agriculture.

The suit asks the court to determine if Broward County Supervisor of Elections Brenda Snipes illegally included ballots after polls closed on Tuesday, November 6, and if so, to remove those votes from the electoral tabulation.

The campaign also filed a public records request for all vote counts and any communications between Snipes, her executive team, her staff, and any third parties talking to the county about counting ballots.

“Brenda Snipes’ office has a record of gross incompetence and illegal behavior. Given the length of time it has taken her office to count votes and the history of Snipes’ past violations, we have concerns the law is not being followed. We want to ensure every legal vote is counted and that we have a forensic reconstruction of when ballots were cast and how,” said Caldwell campaign spokeswoman Danielle Alvarez.

“On Tuesday, the voters of Florida elected Matt Caldwell as our next Commissioner of Agriculture. We are committed to upholding the will of the voters and protecting the integrity of Florida’s electoral process from those seeking to erode our democracy,” Alvarez said.
