    Incumbent Democratic Senator Bill Nelson trails Republican Governor Rick Scott by about 13,000 votes. And, of course, it wouldn't be a close Florida election without a ballot design error that could cost Democrats the election. This time, it's not the butterfly ballot. It's the hidden Senate race ballot. Marc Caputo tells the panel why Florida is so special and explains the mess in Broward County.
