Yup. All those calibration issues that switched Democrat votes to Republican obviously caused him to lose. /s

Calling for a recount?
He lost this election once, why not make it a double to go?

2% is well within the range of the Democrat margin-of-cheating.
There are probably a couple of trunks full of ballots just waiting to be discovered.

It looked like my home county, Walton, went about 3 to 1 for Scott. I just caught the results as they were moving to another one and it might have been even worse.

What’s the recount threshold percentage? Got to figure a 2% win is well outside that limit.

He has to have a recount, elective office is all he knows.

He needs more votes than are votes outstanding - just to break even.
