Rep. Allen West is leading by more than 300 votes in Palm Beach County, Fla., a hopeful sign for the Tea Party favorite fighting for his political life after Tuesday’s election, a source told TheBlaze.
No winner has been declared in the congressional race between the Republican West and his Democratic opponent Patrick Murphy, though Murphy had a 2,456-vote lead in the unofficial vote total.
But a Republican observer who has been monitoring the counting process said West pulled ahead in Palm Beach County on Thursday as the initial count continues. Ballot printing errors led to ballots that could not be fed through scanners in some areas, so Florida election workers have been forced to reproduce their contents onto new ballots that can be read properly, the observer said. As the votes are counted for the first time, West has taken a slim lead.
It’s a separate issue from what’s happening in St. Lucie County, where West has demanded a recount over “disturbing irregularities.” He filed a motion Wednesday to have paper ballots counted and to impound voting machines and all paper ballots cast, WFOR-TV reported.
The observer called St. Lucie County more Republican in makeup while Palm Beach County is a mix but overall Democratic.
“The fact that he is ahead, period, even in this county is a good sign,” the observer said.
Freelance writer Charles C. Johnson contributed to this report.
If he wins, great. But if he loses, he would make a great replacement for Reince Priebus as the new Chairman of the Republican National Committee.
LOL he won;t be libertarian as helps not a liberal on social issues.
He could have moved here and he;d be voted in every time as we’re solid republican in NE FL, anyway he shoudl run and the GOP needs to be better at taking on the left not our side and they can forgot Christie and his photo ops.
NM Gov the woman out there is a good conservative as VP
His new district includes Palm beach which is awful but Martin is GOP but st Lucie a mess .
He was previously in broward which is the crooked dem politics central
In fl .
Romney should have challenged the fl
Results .
Seething reeks .
Mason Dixon had him way ahead and the are always right about fl
The vote is not certified until December 17th so there is time to contact our Senators and Congress men to demand these votes be counted!

Next election the Republican Party ought to have a standing reward of $100,000 for information that leads to the exposure of Democratic Party vote fraud schemes.Just publishing the details on a web site would put a crimp in them. ( Forget about the Holder justice dept. prosecuting anyone.) Even if they paid out $20,000,000 it would have had much more effect than $20,000,000 worth of ads or robocalls.
The other problem in voter fraud lies in WHAT UNION BACKED (SOROS FUNDED) group is calibrating those touch screen ballots? You see where there could easily be fraud and WE’D NEVER KNOW IT>... Does anyone know which states have touch screens and which union (there is one in NV that was backed by SOROS) calibrates the machines?

West’s area was redistricted, adding in some dem counties
Lets not forget then GOP gerrymandered his district to set this up.
all the polls had Romney up even Dems had FL going for Romney ,. I saw the lines and stcikers and signs and talked to folks and trust me he did not win this state and then there is others out in WI, OH , VA which are saying the same.
4 years of Chicago style getting ready for the elections knowing they had to win and I see these results and I have many questions as many of these results do not add up
So true, Romney had the momentum, Obama didn’t, the crowds reflect that, through well orchestrated fraud, Obama stole this election!
I can only imagine .
St Lucie county was ground zero for the Fl
Housing bust .
The Demos are strange now in the southern portion .
It’s a disaster .
I agree. I think early voting is total BS, except in cases of the infirm or elderly. Allowing anyone to vote when they want is ridiculous. It is the most precious right that we hold. If you can't find a way to make it to the ballot box on the first Tuesday following the first Monday in November, then tough crap. I know the arguments, I too travel for work, but I make damn sure I'm home on election day. Early voting allows someone to be in possession of ballots for an indefinite period of time and that is an invitation for fraud.
Mandatory ID, only citizens on the voter rolls and no early voting is the only way to regain legitimacy in our election process.
look at my profile if you get a chance as there are results which are not adding up.
No way in hell this state went for obama, no way and now I;ve seen WI,VA, OH and how votes for obama is down but union votes up in OH by 5%.
WI had people coming in from IL to vote
FL was a lost cause obama got days before the election less than 5000 and yet he is supposed to have onw that area.
If the COL wins then there should be in investigation by the AG, as there shoud in those other states and Mia Loves race in UT
It was despicable that a GOP controlled Florida tried to get Allen West defeated. Those who did the redistricting should forcibly have their affiliation revoked.
They are worse then RINOs they are Communist Democrats in disguise.
Go Allen...
I am certain we all know the famous quote;
“It’s not the people who vote that count. It’s the people who count the votes.”
About time we had a fighter.
This is going to end up as Bush 2000 if he wins. Remember there was an 8-1 ratio in monetary support for Murphy, those same people who funded him are not going to sit on their duffs and accept a loss. Its going to ping pong back and forth and end up decided by a mysterious box of lost ballots that were in the trunk of someone from the DNC.
Stalin said that I think.
Notice how all these results which do not add up all happened in Dem counties or where Dems have a lot of control
