Election keeps getting weirder
KING 5 ^ | 19 December 2004 | KING 5 News Staff & Wire Services

Posted on 12/19/2004 8:43:25 PM PST by JosefK

Republican emotions were inflamed by party chairman Chris Vance, who blamed King County elections officials, democrats, and even those 700 plus voters for this situation.

Once again, he demanded their votes not be counted, and left the door open for calling for a whole new election if they are.

"If there's another outcome or another decision and questionable or illegal ballots are brought into the process, we reserve all of our options," he said.

. . .

Democrat candidate Chris Gregoire said voter trust will be eroded more by disqualifying legitimate ballots than correcting mistakes by elections officials and counting them.

She also ruled out asking for a new election, which would be a multimillion-dollar proposition.

"Taxpayers can't afford that in this tough time. A redo is good in games like golf and mulligan when you're practicing, not when it's real," she said. "Let's have the legitimate votes counted let's move forward, and at the end of the week I'll live with the results and I'll call on Dino Rossi to do the same thing."

Yes, the legitimate ones. It amazes me that they keep finding votes and hey we must count them all.

And we haven't heard from Cliff Arnebeck and the "non-partisan" voting rights coalition about a blatant Democratic attempt to steal an election! There's organized fraud in Washington State but no cares. Hey, when Republicans are the victims of an attempt to nullify legitimate votes its a non-issue. That's an outrage!

Wow. Aren't they laying on the bias a wee bit thick?

Does that mean "The GOP's legal briefs are not on-line yet." ?

She vehemently opposes a new vote, because she knows she would lose badly. Cheating her way into office via Kiev County is her only hope.

Oh, they're online at http://pullonsupermanscape.typepad.com/pull_on_supermans_cape/2004/12/wa_governors_ra_12.html . But the mainstream media refuses to host them.

Of course, UKRAINE 5 won't post them until they're leaned on.

Precisely and we all know the State Dems will either contest the election or force a Governor Rossi to veto a runoff and become the most hated Governor in the nation. For that matter, I would hate him and so should you, for he didn't have the balls to win again.

I think I recall a precinct South of Greenlake that is comprised exclusively of a retirement center. Unlike the rest of the precincts North of the Ship Canal that vote 80% Democrat, this one always votes exactly 100% Democrat. That's just not possible, unless the mail-room guy and the nurses are hijacking the ballots and coercing the elderly.

I've heard of many such stories from the Democrats over the years. They own the nursing homes, and coerce many many votes from them.

I'm not familiar with the game of "mulligan". Sounds like Washington has another real brainiac here.

You've already had one, Ms. Gregoire, and you lost. Obviously do-overs are OK as long as it is your party that has that option. And what is this game called mulligan?

Mulligan is actually a golf terminology for when you hit the ball into the water... I forget the rest - too many years since I played a golf computer game. Politics is just too much fun!

I saw an earlier thread on this where apparently the voter wrote his/her vote on the ballot, and had written Chris Rossi, and the vote was counted for Gregoire. Does anyone know if this is true? Seems to me like that vote should have ended up as an undecided one.

Well, it was true. But the oval by Gregoire was filled...

I think the game of mulligan might be that one where you "make a football". Somebody should ask that Kathleen Kennedy Townsend clown from Maryland or wherever....

I don't know if it's true .. but I remember reading the same thing. The ballot was discovered in the recount and disqualified. IIRC.
