at least we know they would either throw out the king county "extra votes" or make yakima county and the other conservative counties also allow the "extra votes". but hopefully we won't need to go there.
Benton isn't all in yet, is it ? Rossi should pick up at least 200+ there to pad his lead and protect against any slippage in Gray's Harbor.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. Got it!
92 votes? I need a drink.....

Benton 750
Grays Harbor 1221
Statewide Totals 1971
The machine recount happens if difference is less than 2,000 votes--not 1,200.
I am just hopingf Gray's isn't waiting to see Benton numbers so they know how many votes need to be manufactured.
How can they "throw out" the King County votes? Didn't they just get tossed in with the rest of the count as soon as the judge ruled? There's no way separate them is there?
Can you share your drink with me?
DOH! I was looking at the Gray's Harbor votes out when I typed 1200 LOL. You are correct. 2000.
I thought it had to be finalized (all votes reported by the end of business 5:30?) and votes not then counted would not be counted.

There have been six recounts in WA history. None has ever changed the certified result.
It's cool that it automatically updates!
Snapple? Little fruits make big splash in frisky ads
Yes, the King County votes were all for Gregoire. The Dems asked the judge to allow them to verify them, and he did.
The Pubs then requested the same thing in Yakima county in a very shrewd move as they knew the Lib judge there would say no.
That's what I'm afraid of - - it was screwy there and could get screwier (by my calculations, based on previous counts, R-48.6% and G-49.3%)
LOL....I just started drinking......cheers......I WANT champagne......WAAAAAAA for a ROSSI WIN!!! And, I want it NOW! sheesh.
