On November 13, Walker held a press conference admitting that “mistakes were made” and her staff acted “in haste” to process the results. Local news outlets reported the enormity of the “mistakes":Voting procedures today in Obama Times. Libs win at all cost.
“Out of 94 precincts, the first 40--mostly in Fort Pierce--weren't counted at all, and the last 54--mostly in Port St. Lucie---were counted twice…”.
Results were not certified due to military and overseas ballots still arriving. In addition, the Florida Division of Elections sent auditors to St. Lucie County to investigate, among other things, how a partial recount of early votes could lead to 799 ballots switching hands or disappearing.
After seeking to calm the concerns of the West campaign and Florida voters by stating in her press conference that the partial recount had corrected all outstanding errors, Walker boldly claimed that “every vote has been counted accurately.” Three days later, on November 16, Walker suddenly found 306 ballots in a box at her office that had not been counted. The St. Lucie County Canvassing Board immediately ordered a full recount of all early ballots with a deadline set for noon on November 18.
