A Florida Circuit judge ruled Friday that that the state’s second-most populous county violated state and federal laws by destroying ballots from a 2016 Democratic primary race which Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz won.
Circuit Judge Raag Singhal decided that the records were wrongly destroyed because the laws require elections offices to keep the ballots in federal elections for 22 months. Elections Supervisor Brenda Snipes destroyed the ballots just after 12 months, the Sun-Sentinel reported.
The judge also noted that because the ballots were subject to a lawsuit, only a court order should have allowed their destruction.
Snipes “has not presented any evidence refuting that the public records sought were destroyed while this case was pending before this court,” Singhal said.

And yet still fools still vote democrat. Kinda makes you wonder however what the dems o rats are covering up..
Imagine Wasserman not following the law and doing something illegal.....who would have thought she would do this?????
wasn't there a case where the mailman was taking all the mail in ballots he got on his route and threw them in a ditch at the end of the day? I think that was Wisconsin.
And, as usual, nobody will be jailed, fined or even given an official tongue lashing.
