It is now clear that Dino will never sit in the Governor's chair. Let me be the first to contribute to his campaign to oust Maria Cantwell in 06. I know the flights are long, Dino, but you can do it.

Oh, this isn't over yet. Not by a long shot.

I believe the numbers mean that his pre-manual-recount lead (42) has increased by one to 43.

[Arkinsaw]

He was never going to win this, they were going to recount every count he was winning until they get one where he loses and then they will demand that it be over immediately. But hopefully Washingtonians will remember this next time.

Republican counties continue to chip away at his lead.

Huh? I don't get it?

[dc-zoo]

Your post makes no sense.. Details?

[zbigreddogz]

You arn't understanding what's going on. All that means is Rossi is now up one vote from where he was, which was up 42 votes. So now he is up by 43.

No need to panic yet. He'll still win if the magical re-appearing ballots in King County are shown to be the frauds they most likely are.

OOOH OOOH Look at this! Dan Rather has located some more votes from King Co.

Probably right. On the other hand, Daschle and the democrats are probably wishing they had never stolen the 2002 election from Thune. Cantwell is up next.

The amazing thing is that the county-by-county changes are pretty much equivalent. All look like "within the margin of error" stuff -- unlike what would SURELY happen if the Republicans were not guarding this henhouse like the family jewels....and if Dino loses, this surely will to to SCOTUS, having WON the first two counts.

For those of us not intimately involved with this recount, what is going on?

Is the Dem or the Republican going to win?

What has happened as a result of the recount?

Thanks
