further explain that process. they re mixing tabulations. whatever that site is that they re utilizing is not the official site of the broward county election supervisor s office. that s the site that we realily and those are the people that cast votes in this particular election. reporter: will the canvassing board be meeting later today? reporter: unofficial election results on broward county now? yes. and again, we just within the hour had some decisions made in the canvassing board. i can t tell you, those are already on the site, but you were in there, you heard whatever decisions they made. reporter: does the canvassing board meet while a manual recount is done or is that done separately? if there are disputes that arise, they re always while the process is complete. reporter: will this be available during the recount? i don t know. reporter: that s why we need dr. snipes. how do you not have an answer
to that? there is a process. there is a process to every election, ma am. there are votes that go into categories to be reviewed by the canvassing process. that s why they said the deadline is saturday at 12:00. the deadline is not the day after the election. there is a process. every county is certifying those votes. that s the process broward county is following. thank you very much. okay. it is clear there is a bit of confusion still in the state of florida, but what we are hearing is they have given the authorization for a machine recount in four of the statewide races as reflected on those ballots in broward county. you heard them saying they have yet to tabulate all of the different areas from which statistics, the polls, the number, everything to try to get to one cohesive number. there is some confusion right
voters having any sense of a lack of integrity in the process and marco rubio is someone who s been a pretty vocal voice in terms of florida statewide republican lawmakers who are intervening now in this process on behalf of rick scott and ron desantis. steve, it appears to you then that there will be both a senate and gubernatorial recount, and if so, what does this tell you about the future of politics in florida and the direction in which its heading? reporter: well, three recounts which will be interesting. the reality with florida is, it really is three or four, five states meshed into one. its very competitive. i think if ali and i ran against each other, we would have very close elections. the last two governors races before this was decided by a point. the last two presidential elections were decided by a point. its just where we are right now as a state.
