A report from the ground: Gertrude Walker is stealing Allen West’s seat in Congress

Tracing the walking history of this mystery box of write in ballots Florida Election Board auditors found somewhere in or around Gertrude Walker's St. Lucie County headquarters is proving to be quite daunting.

And the Allen West-Patrick Murphy recount continued early this morning after being suspended late last night. These write in ballots of 306 early votes somehow missed being counted because machines "kicked them out." With Election Supervisor Walker now hospitalized, we may never know what happened.

Her administrative assistant Annie H. Clark told me, "They didn't find no ballots," but canvassing board member Todd Mowry said the auditors' find "was noted."

Kathryn Nelson, canvassing board member who voted against the new recount," told me, "Those ballots just were not included in the official count."

Rumors on comment rolls began to surface about this mystery box late last week putting it in a high school gym somewhere. The Tradition Hall polling place computer came in late and even Colonel West himself decried the chaos on election day, especially at the Minsky gym location.

The machine under Walker's supervision kicked out 306 write in ballots that had to be manually tallied, but somewhere along the process this box disappeared and later was found by Florida state auditors. "You color in a bullet" (bubble) some man in the audience of recount watchers told me.

But a retired school administrator who with his wife is driving 140 miles round trip from Wellington clearly is disgusted with everything going on.

"I think it's a mess; why is it a mess? Why can't we get it right. . .we've been voting for hundreds of years. . .there's got to be a better process than this," he said… West supporters were out in force all day Saturday….

Perhaps she in the hospital because she needs a colonoscopy to find the ballots stuffed up her rectum?
