With the primary elections now just weeks away, the state says it is ready.
However, some election experts say they're still worried history could repeat itself in a close race.
The issue isn't with hanging chads and butterfly ballots this time though. It's with electronic voting machines.
Many counties have now installed the machines, but critics are worried the machines could be rigged.
They also want a mandatory paper trail for the machines.
Nevertheless, state election workers have their doubts.
"You don't want to put your Supervisors of Elections and County Commissions in the position of having to go spend more money,” Florida Secretary of State Sue Cobb said. “If there's going to be a new machine, which I know people will think of, that does an all-in-one process. So, everybody's looking at it."
