This shows me why hand re-counts are crap. If you are too out of it to properly mark a ballot so a machine can read it, then you have ruined your own vote. You have only yourself to blame.

This is my favorite photo of the recount:

With 'Go Dems' written on his glove, an unidentified elections worker processes ballots Wednesday, Dec. 15, 2004 in Tukwila, Wash. at the King County (Wash.) ballot counting headquarters. The work was part of the ongoing statewide hand recount of ballots for Washington's governor's race that was triggered after a statewide machine recount declared Republican Dino Rossi the winner over Christine Gregoire by a 42-vote margin.

The left markings on the ballot on the top picture is obviously for alignment purposes unless they figured someone would vote for Washington. If someone thought that was the spot to mark their pick then they are too dumb to vote anyway.

Reminds of the Keystone Cops. Can anyone here imagine doing what these bozos are doing?

We weren't supposed to see this again! We saw enough of this kind of bullspit four years ago on the other side of the continent!

Just damn.

If you want on the list, FReepmail me. This IS a high-volume PING list...

Looks like the Rats are up to their old tricks again. This time I guess they actually stole one. We've simply got to get more people on our side. If it ain't close, they can't cheat.

That's it!

What we need is a blank line at the end of a list of candidates. Then you write in the full name of the candidate you are voting for. No more chads, ink stains, smears, dimples. Nothing. Either the damn blank line is blank or you see the name clearly written in the blank. If you can't read the damn name, the vote doesn't count.

This is why demorats want paper ballots. With computerized
ballots it is or it isn't. It's called boolean.

Do we think we may have had a little "work done"?

I'm actually quite upset by WA election results because I feel it was one big sleaze co-ordination to put this incompetent woman in office. To me, liberal women like this (including Boxer, Feinstein and others) are just downright ugly. They would be beautiful if they had standards, but, since they don't, they're just ugly and unappealing.

Anyway, I'm pretty upset about this and I hope Rossi and the GOP will be able to reverse this corruption somehow.

These photos make the process seem so ad-hoc and primitive...

Thankfully, it's all over... NOT!

With all the fraud, a new election should be held.
