Jeb Bush has taken a firm stance against the incompetent, and possibly corrupt, election official in Broward county. The Daily Wire reports:
We haven’t heard from Jeb Bush since he was being trounced by Donald Trump in the 2016 Republican presidential primaries, but he’s back and weighing in on politics.
The former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush is calling for Broward County Supervisor of Elections Brenda Snipes to be removed from her position.
“There is no question that Broward County Supervisor of Elections Brenda Snipes failed to comply with Florida law on multiple counts, undermining Floridians’ confidence in our electoral process,” Bush wrote on Twitter. “Supervisor Snipes should be removed from her office following the recounts.”

Bush, a Republican, has a long history with Snipes. He appointed her to her current post when he was governor after suspending Miriam Oliphant in November 2003 for what he called “grave neglect, mismanagement and incompetence.”
Though Jeb’s support for her removal is welcome, Republicans have been neglecting holding election officials accountable, including Snipes, when they were in power.
In my opinion McSally has/is facing the same situation in Arizona. The DemonRATS are using whatever means to win. Evil walks among us the Demonrats, Libbys, Far Left, Rinos and of course SOROS whom has paid for most of the CHAOS that’s dividing our country, much as he has done in other countries. It is reason enough that Russia has a bounty offer for Soros.
OK Jeb Bush, nice to shed honesty on the matter, the main ingredient the whole elections is missing.
Just an observation but when Blacks are in office they seem crooked, of course there are isolated politico’s that are fair and honest, but for over 40 years I just don’t see it, even when I voted for them. Snipes with her arrogant typical attitude says it all.
When they get the chance they should strive to be the best and most honest so we can think of voting for more, but it is only other Blacks and stupid children in their corner,and don’t forget the far left.
Jeb Bush: I understand that your motivation to appoint Ms. Snipes was to place a person in that job who was similar racially to many of the constituents in the district. She was not even of your political party, but you sought to be fair. Had it resulted in a well-placed, positively performing person to the job in question, you would now be lauded for your insight in the appointment.
But, since her placement in that position, her performance has revealed that above all else, her political agenda was served primarily by her.
I don’t see it as your fault, a judgment into an appointee’s political future is a dicey proposition. You meant well, it was a best judgment at the time. By now, her mission has been exposed for sure, and no doubt a disappointment to a man who was a very decent Governor.
What I want to know is what the hell is taking so long to have this incompetent person removed from this job. And it should “NOT” be done after the votes are counted but “NOW”. It’s common sense in business that if someone is incompetent in their job, you remove them right away, not when they could possibly destroy or cause even more havoc to this already complicated issue.
How stupid can officials really be, and to expect any so called public service people to not get pissed and do something even worse when they are being accused of something is even more ludicrous.
So everyone now watch, this Snipes lady will end up “SUING” the State and the FED’S for her losing her job and the taxpayer will have to foot the bill for another lawsuit and eventually payoff to this incompetent person, not to mention all of the staff who sat by and knew very well that things were not right too!
The Bush’s are part of the problem.
The problem with our election process NOW is the people, the voting public, cannot rely upon the fairness of elections. It has become a matter of “who can cheat the most without getting caught” to put their candidate in office. I have written and called congressmen and senators asking WHY are these votes not counted on time and WHY are votes continually being “FOUND” long after the elections are over. There are people in positions who are responsible for this and the violations of law are astronomical. It was once said by Will Rogers that “It is not he who votes that decides elections but it is he who counts the votes”. THIS has become FACT. What I have received back from these congressmen and senators are “FORM” letters telling me what a great job they are doing. When are these election monitoring people going to be prosecuted???
Why are we a country of laws not enforcing these very laws that has made this country the best on earth. No matter what side of the aisle one stands lady justice is blind folded for a reason. With that said this Brenda Snipes and her bias sleazy tactics need to be investigated. If she broke the law it requires severe swift penalties. If no laws were broken she needs to be fired for severe inept incompetence.

I live in Georgia with horrible things happening here in connection with the midterms. There needs to be a huge effort to enforce voting laws. No quibbling, just enforce the laws and none of this would be happening. Those who break the law need to go straight to jail. Thank you for speaking up, Jeb.
Where I come from, the ID picture and thumb print is OBLIGATORY to the extent
that if stopped by police without it, you may end up in the can until you produce it or prove satisfactorily who you are and its a sine qua non condition for voting and after voting, you submerge your pinky finger into an indelible ink which prevents you from voting again elsewhere….
In our USA, we get a driver’s license card with your picture in it but stipulates it is for ID purpose only, not for driving and often, no ID is required for voting
With such lousy system,which no party seems to be willing to correct, is there
any to wonder hanky-pankies with votes…?????
It does seem like when nothing has been proven and the police said that as well as the Federal observers, as well as the court how can anyone say that the woman violated Florida law in any way where is the proof through the police or courts.
Not allowing observers to witness the canvassing is a provable fact. She has provably broken the law on several occasions but it is not a felony in Florida so she has not been charged. The only person that can remove her is Scott buf Democrats would scream he’s just being partisan. Naturally, the biased media would side with the dems- since they are one and the same.
Hey X-Governor Jeb Bush. What are your feelings about the highly suspectable corruption in voter fraud in Florida? Why are you so quiet
?
