3/ Displaced Floridians will want to vote absentee,but absentee ballots that were mailed won't be available for some, creating complications

4/ Other Floridians will look to state to insure polling stations are up and running for those who are back, a big challenge in some areas

5/ We saw makeshift efforts with Sandy to allow voting by fax etc. FL efforts will be heavily scrutinized, and claims of fraud, suppression

6/ If the storm seriously disrupts FL election processes, courts could get involved, and cases could end up at 4-4 deadlocked #SCOTUS

7/ Meanwhile, campaigns will be disrupted by storm, freezing race as attention diverts to storm, giving short term advantage to Clinton

8/ But if Obama administration seen as botching storm response, that could benefit Trump and Republicans.

9/ But bottom line:a hurricane in FL whose votes could be decisive for president is one of the worst election administration nightmares /end

Thanks Rick! If HRC wins WI, MI, PA, VA, NC, CO, NV, NH then she doesn't need FL or OH. Hope a 2000-style mess doesn't return!
