The Hottest Spot in Florida? The Seat of the Broward County Elections Chief

Brenda Snipes, the head of Broward County's elections office, left, Judge Betsy Benson, center, and Judge Deborah Carpenter-Toye look over a ballot during a canvassing board meeting at the Broward County Supervisor of Elections Office in Lauderhill, Fla., Nov. 9, 2018. Snipes, a Democrat, is at the center of a raging controversy marked by three statewide recounts, a litany of lawsuits, rising calls for her removal (the most recent from by the man who appointed her), — and a rowdy protest last week buoyed by the stinging words of President Donald Trump.
