A poll of Washington residents released the day Democrat Christine Gregoire was certified as the winner in the state's hotly contested governor's race shows that a majority of voters believes she was not legitimately elected.
The GOP polling firm Strategic Vision, LLC found that 54 percent of voters "do not believe" that the final hand recount that certified Gregoire as the victor "reflects the actual election results," reports Friday's Washington Times.
Only 37 percent believed the recount was accurate, and that Gregoire truly defeated her GOP opponent, Dino Rossi. Nine percent were undecided.
Fifty-three percent of Washington voters say the results in heavily Democratic King County, where hundreds of votes mysteriously appeared on the eve of a final recount, were not legitimate.
The survey is particularly significant since at least some of the respondents who called the certified recount illegitimate were Democrats who actually cast their votes for Gregoire.
Strategic Vision, LLC surveyed 800 registered voters on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of this week. The margin of error was 3 percent.
Things have a way of coming back to roost.
From my blog (sanityanyone.blogspot.com) of yesterday:
"...I can imagine the fell deeds and editorial roar it would cause if Republicans suddenly 'found' 3000 'uncounted' ballots! If I was a resident of WA I would find that completely unacceptable and say so in strongest terms, just like Rossi. I don't like the smell of it even all the way over here in West (By God) Virginia."
Even without a revote Gregiore is hopelessly smeared by the scandal.
Are these people just pi**ing in the wind? They can sincerely believe that Gregoire and the Demopukes stole the election....but what good will it do, if all the institutions of society let it pass?
Or, "Cheater Chris and her band of Phonycrats"
What do you mean 54%? I demand a recount.
People, we are going to stay here until we get the count to come out the way we want!
If you've never used a snow blower, be warned that you need to lubricate the tube with silicone spray so it doesn't clog. And NEVER put your hand down the tube while it is turned on. Remember that advice and you'll be operating like a champ in a couple of weeks!
That's good advice, and it makes sense too. Thanks, AFTR.
They don't even try now.
They don't have to. The MSM coverage will imply or even state, that the democrats won, although hotly contested, an honest and legitimate race. They will ignore all of the shenanigans and illegal votes the democrats, with the aid of a democrat judicary, used to finally obtain enough votes to "claim" a phony victory.

Boy, is this ever true. It's not getting coverage now because of the tsunami, but it wasn't getting coverage before. A little on Fox, but ignored largely by all the typical elitists.
Remember, folks. The fashionable color to wear in Washington is now orange. Someone needs to print buttons and bumperstickers that say: "Vladimir Putin endorses Viktoria Gregoirovych."
I wonder if some of those Republicans living in Washington could get together and form a protest outside the Govenor's mansion demanding either all of the bogus ballots be exculed or a new election be held. It would require at least twice the number democrats would generally expect to have at such an event before the MSM would totally ignore the event.
LOL
Someone could make a real killing in Ukraine.. uh, I mean Washington selling orange blazers, stocking caps, jackets, mufflers, ( scarves) etc...
Not to mention the orange flags, buttons and bumperstickers..
" I'd like an orange beeber pleeze.."
" Yessir.. Stuned, or un-stuned ? "
" Stuned, pleeze.."
Rip up the driveway and have heating coils installed underneath, that should do the trick.
This is all thanks to Gore. He was a student of statistics and knew that in a close election that is within the margin of error, all the loser has to do is keep recounting the vote until one count out of many declares him the winner. Never mind that he lost all the vote counts until this one instance. It's quite dishonest but beyond the comprehension of the general public.
Geegoire illegitimate?
Since she's a democrat, we already knew she's a bastard!
Actually, the operative principle for the democrats is:
"If we (the democrats) can't win, fair and square, steal the election!"
..I was in Evansville,Ind. 12/22>12/24/04, during the the "Snow Blow" as a temp. ..thanks for the belated advice. hahaha :^)
