Florida spends twenty dollars per ballot on their elections. We spend around nine.

Not verifiable

Why this verdict View evidenceHide evidence
Why we checked itSpecific per-ballot spending figures for Florida and Arizona are cited to argue Arizona is underfunded; these figures are verifiable and material to the policy argument being made.
What we foundNo primary source confirms the specific figures of $20 per ballot for Florida and $9 for Arizona; the best available academic data puts Florida's cost at roughly $15 per voter, not $20, and no comparable Arizona-specific figure was found.
