Republican PARTY???

Are you kidding! - the Republican party is long gone - taken over by the religious facists of the conservative party.

You do not win the race any longer you win the proaganda war
the spin is the truth and to lie is a a conservative moral value.

Get Real James

Is It Over?
After counting nearly 3 million ballots three different times, four lawsuits, seven weeks and a series of embarrassing mistakes in King County, Democrat Christine Gregoire finally came out ahead in Washington's gubernatorial election. In the hand reco...

Shut up dumb ass Ken. You know not of what you speak. Shenanigans abound and almost all were in King County. Certain types of votes (i.e., without correct or registered signatures) that were counted in King County were not counted in other parts of the state.

Add to this the military absentee ballots that were not mailed out until TWO DAYS BEFORE the election. There are thousands of military folk in Iraq and Afghanistan now that were denied a right to vote through "no fault of their own" (which was the standard used to count an additional 750 ballots in King County that were not in the first two counts).

King County is the only county that relied on "enhanced" ballots where election workers completed the ballots using a pen or white out! (One could only guess why they were using white out.)

Then, check out precinct 1823 in downtown Seattle. Over 500 voters registered at the same address, some twice.

And if you don't think a hand recount is less accurate than a machine tally, then you are a real dumbass, Ken.

And I'm gonna wish you a Merry Christmas Kenny, just because I know it is gonna piss you off. Ha!

Methinks the doctor doth protest too much. If the Republicans think that the result doesn't reflect the votes actually cast, they should fight it. That is not stealing.

James, with this tirade of yours it is clear to me that you do not understand the fundemental facts of American democracy. No one can 'steal' an election when all the votes are counted and honestly reported. Whoever has the most votes WINS the election. Winnning is not stealing.

It does not matter how long it takes nor how many times ballots need to be counted. What matters is that all the ballots be counted. As a voter I expect nothing less from all election officials. You should as well.

This is victory for democracy. It is victory of each and every person who goes to the polls (or in this case, sends in a ballot) expecting that their vote counts for something. Shame on you and anyone else who would deny some voters the right to have their ballot count.

A corrupt election official would be one who refuses to count ballots and a partisan judge would do exactly the same. It is sad that you would think otherwise.

Florida II: Washington 2004
Here's the bottom line in the Washington state recount: if it was valid for the disputed ballots in King county to be reviewed to assure that no vote had been wrongly discarded, then a statewide canvassing to guarantee the same treatment to all ballo...
