Republicans have discovered and verified 737 illegal votes in Washington's ultra-close governor's election, state party leaders said Wednesday.
Gregoire won the election by just 129 votes in a hand recount of 2.9 million ballots, after losing the first two counts to Republican Dino Rossi. She was inaugurated earlier this month.
The right has taken the position against audits, paper trails and high security apparently because the left wants them. It is only almost universally true that everything they believe is wrong, even a stopped clock is right twice a day.
The bonus in more security is that it will catch more of them cheating, it is truly ironic that the idealists over there think security will help their side, you can bet the decision makers don't agree. In fact you don't hear Kennedy or Hillary scream for more secure vote counting, do you?
