    Settlement of Early Voting Lawsuit in 3 FL Counties
    <http://electionlawblog.org/?p=43456>

Posted on November 5, 2012 2:15 pm <http://electionlawblog.org/?p=43456> 
by Rick Hasen <http://electionlawblog.org/?author=3>

Apparently the three stipulations are about the same:

    a. On Monday, November 5, 2012, there shall be in-person absentee ballot

    voting until 5:00 pm. Anyone in line at 5:00 pm will be provided a
    ballot so long as that

    ballot can be printed and delivered before 7:00 pm.

    b. On Tuesday, November 6, 2012, there shall be in-person absentee
    ballot

    voting from 7:00 am until 7:00 pm. At such time at the end of the
    day as it appears that

    there are more people in line than can obtain a ballot and vote
    before 7:00 pm, or drive to

    their precinct to vote, as required by Florida law, the Supervisor
    shall advise those who

    cannot be so accommodated that they must go to their precinct to vote.

    2. The Supervisor of Elections shall forthwith advise the media
    about the new

    hours for absentee voting.

    3. The County is acting consistent with the requirements of Florida
    Statutes Sec.

    101.62(4)(c)(3).

    4. The County's practices are consistent with the best interests of
    the voters of

    Palm Beach County to allow expanded voting opportunities.

    5. The Court shall reserve jurisdiction to ensure compliance.

    Miami Dade Again Shuts Down in Person Absentee
    Balloting.-UPDATED--OR NOT <http://electionlawblog.org/?p=43409>

Posted on November 5, 2012 9:52 am <http://electionlawblog.org/?p=43409> 
by Rick Hasen <http://electionlawblog.org/?author=3>

Even though Ohio is giving it a run for its money, Florida is doing 
whatever it can to be the next Florida.

My prediction is that FL beats OH in the Election Incompetency Bowl, 
broadcast live tomorrow (all stations).

A national embarassment.

UPDATE:  Apparently those reports were re-tweets from yesterday and 
early voting going forward in Miami today.
