Recounts prove nothing for GOP - but are gospel for Dems? Wow that's really fair...

I have faith that our "justice" system will screw this up more than even the Rats can imagine.
You know the answer to that.
Agreed. If we start with these revotes the Dems will demand one everytime they lose.
And, didn't Sauerbrey run again in 1998, and LOSE GROUND? Didn't she try to "accommodate" the liberals the second time, and she fared worse? Correct me if I am wrong.
Agreed. No revote. The first vote, without the fraud gives it a Republican victory anyway. Don't give the rats another opportunity to cheat even more.
Democrats favor recounts only when Democrats are trailing in the "final count."
In a recount Republican Rossi would win hands down, just like that formerly handsome Ukrainian dude. The only thing missing in Washington State is that the King County "Rat" machine didn't slip dioxin into Rssi's morning cup of Starbucks Coffee.

The 'rats didn't even try to cover their fraud---and they think that everone else in WA is either blind and/or stupid.
What are the chances of a revote taking place, and what can be done to prevent further shenanigans from the 'rats?
"Democrats favor recounts only when Democrats are trailing in the "final count."
Remmeber the name of the book?
"They can only cheat if it's close"
Hardball politics, plain and simple.
The chances of a revote are slim unless Rossi can come up with overwhelming, incontrovertable evidence of fraud or illegal votes - enough to have changed the 130 election margin to his favor - and convince a judge to throw out the election and order the Legislature to hold a new one. Yes, the Dems will try to cheat again, but this time the rules will be tightened up, they won't be allowed to change the rules mid-election and there will be literally hundreds of observors watching their every move. That, combined with the voters distaste with what Gregoire has done will result in a Rossi victory with a wide enough margin that their cheating won't work, IMHO.
That and criminal conspiracy.
The King County machine is organized crime, pure and simple. This fraud has to be vigorously fought since the national democrats clearly had this in mind if Ohio were any closer.
**Seattle's Precinct 1823 counted 343 ballots, which is 71 more ballots than the 272 voters who cast them.**
I really hope they can challenge all this fraud and Rossi will eventually be declared the "true" winner.
We all know that Gregoire is not the gov of WA.
That's a powerful endorsement.
I hope it raises an eyebrow or two among those twits in Olympia.
When is the new governor supposed to take the oath of office?
This is different because there are no provisions for a re-vote in a presidential election. In fact it is pretty much forbidden so the 'rats could screech from now until the next ice age and they would not get it.
In this case, as I understand it there are indeed provisions for a re-vote.
Still looking for one case where Republicans gained more votes in a re-count then the Democrats did.
I thought Bush gained a few extra votes in the Ohio recount...
