It's Broward County Again!
The Sun-Sentinel reports Voting office inquiry widens:
An employee in Broward County's elections office has told prosecutors that there are more uncounted absentee ballots from September's primary than those found this week in a file cabinet.

The lawyer for the employee said she discovered more than 500 unopened ballots in the office mailroom two days after the election. According to the story she laid out to prosecutors, she notified her supervisor and was told there had been a mix-up and that the votes needed to disappear.
It's hard to determine whether it's incompetence or just fraud in Broward and Palm Beach.
