Among all mail-in ballots cast in Broward County regardless of age, 5,464 ballots were not counted — a rejection rate of 2.8 percent, the election office said. One lawsuit noted that Florida election officials had rejected more than 4,000 ballots for mismatched signatures. More than half of them voted, an unusually strong turnout among young voters in a midterm election, Smith noted. Many of the Parkland young adults whose ballots were rejected say state and local election offices are to blame. The election office mailed it again, and she received it on Election Day.
