By all means look into it. The Florida state police and Scott’s appointed monitors found nothing.
The reality is they will not likely change either election, with 15000 and 36000 vote difference.
How Scott and DeSantis handle this will impact them in the next election.
After the campaign run in AZ it is hard to believe McSally has been the classy one in all of this....

"Brenda Snipes has held her position since 2003, in which year her predecessor, Miriam Oliphant, was suspended for “ grave neglect, mismanagement and incompetence” and, quite literally, marched out of her office. Alas, Snipes has proven no better at fulfilling her duties than was Oliphant. On Friday, a court in Broward County found that Snipes was guilty of violating both Florida’s public-records laws and the state’s constitution by failing to provide mandatory updates to the public, and it ordered the immediate release of the missing information. As that ruling was coming down, Snipes’s office was laying out more lawsuit bait. According to the Miami Herald, an election worker found bags of “uncounted early ballots” in the Broward County office — ballots whose provenance could not be established. Snipes, meanwhile, was busy mixing together rejected provisional ballots and accepted provisional ballots, processing them all together. She justified her decision to add these provisional ballots to the official tally on the grounds that it would be better to include some illegal votes than to nix the legal ones with which, by her own incompetence, they had been blended.
This year alone, Snipes has been reprimanded by the courts twice: once, in May, for illegally destroying ballots during the 2016 Democratic primary, in violation of both state and federal law; and again, in August, for illegally opening mail-in ballots in secret. How long, we wonder, does it take to establish a pattern?
she'll probably get a promotion and a lifetime achievement award

I'm trying to conceive of a clear, conclusory, connection between Trump's tweet and your conclusion.
Can't do it.
You make some big leaps, but don't actually get here from your side of the chasm to the other side.

I’m fairly certain he’s referring to the fact that the tweet from the president is reinforcing lies about election fraud in Arizona. All while saying those lies justify the need to protect our democracy. So therefore he must be trying to spread lies to bolster his own support and get his base to vote in 2020.
I’m pretty sure that’s what he’s referring to, and it’s not that big a stretch, no matter which side of the matter you fall on

Andrew Gillum Concedes to Ron DeSantis in Florida Governor’s Race after recount
so the recount assailed by Republicans, without evidence, as a possible smoke screen for election fraud ...
since they won this race in the recount no more voter fraud??? should we expect more of the same from the GOP in tough elections 2020? Thats it is always Fraud unless we win???

So you Honestly believe in the voter fraud allegations ... without a shred of proof ....
please identify the fraud you insist was there ....
PS i supported the recount due to a close race.. Trump and Scott and this guy and many other GOP candidates across the country were opposed to recounts based on a lie (voter fraud ) yet I am against Honesty OK ! .

If there was a result that was reversed what do you want to call it. If it’s not fraud then just call it whatever you wish and I agree. My point is that only a fool would protest trying to make things right and you are welcome to prove me right.

prove me right. FYI you need Fact based answers to be right lets start there 1st then try again
If there was a result that was reversed what do you want to call it
what they called it Arizona a win for the person with the most votes ... same as what happened in the Fla recount
The only fools protest trying to make things right were the GOP against the recount claiming Fraud attempting to sow the seed of doubt in the outcome in the election but since they won no more talk of of fraud..?
but you seem not to acknowledge that is what actually happened ... where was the Fraud ??? from the start the Fraud was placed in your head by a lie encouraged and started by Scott and reinforced by the POTUS himself
rick scott statements about the recount
I will not sit idly by while unethical liberals try to steal this election from the great people of Florida.”
Trump on the re count
When people get in line that have absolutely no right to vote and they go around in circles," Trump told the Daily Caller in an interview. "Sometimes they go to their car, put on a different hat, put on a different shirt, come in and vote again. Nobody takes anything. It’s really a disgrace what’s going on.”

After high turnout in last year's midterm elections propelled Democrats to a new House majority and big gains in the states, several Republican-controlled state legislatures are attempting to change voting-related rules in ways that might reduce future voter turnout.
Republican lawmakers in those states say new laws are needed to maintain the integrity of voter rolls and prevent fraud.
Shocking response .. They dont give up i'll give them that ...

True voter suppression, and it happens, is evil.. Purely evil.
Requiring id cards isn't, that's not racist, unless the process for getting ids is somehow more cumbersome for blacks than it is for whites.

If you are entitled,you have the option to vote. Simple really
But you want to make it like farm jobs ,where not enough Americans vote so we might as well let the illegals do it....they aren’t taking anything away.
