Disgraced Broward County Elections Supervisor Brenda Snipes took back her decision to resign as the county\u2019s elections chief on Saturday after Gov. Rick Scott suspended her from her duties.<\/h2>\n
Snipes\u2019 attorney\u00a0announced<\/a>\u00a0at a Saturday press conference that her client would be rescinding her decision to resign from the post in January and vowed she would be \u201cfighting this to the very end.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cWe believe these actions are malicious,\u201d said Snipes\u2019 attorney, Burnadette Norris-Weeks, telling Broward County voters that Scott\u2019s appointment to the post could affect the predominantly Democratic county in the 2020 elections.<\/p>\n Scott\u00a0suspended<\/a>\u00a0Snipes via executive order on Friday, appointing his former general counsel, Peter Antonacci, to the post to serve out the rest of her term. Antonacci would serve until November 2020, when voters will choose Snipes\u2019 replacement.<\/p>\n State law requires the Florida Senate to vote on removing or reinstating county officials if the governor decides to suspend them.<\/p>\n The outgoing Florida Republican governor cited her \u201cmisfeasance, incompetence, and neglect of duty\u201d during the recount for the 2018 U.S. Senate and gubernatorial races.<\/p>\n The 75-year-old Broward County elections supervisor initially\u00a0resigned<\/a>\u00a0from her position after her office came under fire for botching the vote count in the November 6 elections, specifically the recount of a tight Senate race between Scott, a Republican, and incumbent Democrat Sen. Bill Nelson (D-FL).<\/p>\n Broward County failed to meet the state\u2019s deadline for turning in recount results in the midterms,\u00a0misplaced<\/a>\u00a0thousands of ballots, and opened 205 provisional ballots before they were determined to be valid or invalid.<\/p>\n The disgraced elections supervisor also had a history of illegally\u00a0destroying<\/a>\u00a0voter ballots in a 2016 Democratic primary for a congressional race between Rep. Debbie Wasserman-Schultz (D-FL) and Democratic challenger Tim Canova and had been accused of not removing dead voters from voter rolls.<\/p>\n
