Oct 16, 2014 Washington (CNN) -- Florida Gov. Rick Scott refused to go onstage for the first seven minutes of a debate Wednesday night, because his opponent had a fan.
No, not a rowdy supporter in the audience. An actual electric fan.
Scott's Democratic challenger, former Gov. Charlie Crist, had set up a small fan underneath his podium, apparently trying to keep himself from sweating under the Broward College stage's lights. Scott saw the fan, a prop that often accompanies Crist at public appearances, as a violation of the debate's rules and said he wouldn't participate.

Seems like the rule was regarding electronics, probably meant to disallow google searches or just talking points on a pad or whatever. Scott decided that it meant fans as well....Can't differentiate electrical from electronics
