The suit states: "This is an action for declaratory and injunctive relief seeking to declare that actions of misconduct by Dr. Brenda Snipes, the Broward County Supervisor of Elections ("SOE") and other Florida and Broward election officials in the supervision of the 2018 general election for Florida's 23rd Congressional district require that the election be set aside pursuant to section 102.168, Florida Statutes."

After the election, Gov. Scott replaced Snipes with one of his own operatives, accusing Snipes of mishandling the chain of custody of ballots. "Florida has long been a hotbed of election fraud," charged Steve Newman, chair of the Brevard County Green Party, who supported Canova's 2018 run in CD 23.
