Primary Results Thread 8/24/2010

Folks,

What are you hearing. What are the results in your area or via local media, Talk Radio, or Fox.

Interesting tidbit on Hugh Hewitt tonight.. Rich Lowry of NRO has been speaking with his deep throat "obi wan" and they have been thinking out of the box and that 2012 may have conservatives with super majorities in both houses.

Just on Fox in FLA in the primaries people voted for Rubio 2 to 1, (just like Michigan) the intensity is worry some for the Dems, Santorum noted the 2 to 1 ratio.

Sarah is in Boston.

Didn't know that! My daughter lives in Boston. Bambi's in Martha's Vineyard - wonder if he invited her over for a beer. ;)

His profile as a supposed Alaskan was completely bogus too.

Who is the writer who moved next door to Sarah? Forgot his name - perhaps....?

You’re welcome!

Joe is a great man and patriot.

I was thrilled when I read Josh’s post.

Now Joe is being quoted in several articles! Lame stream is not happy about him giving Sarah credit...LOL.

Of all people that need a vacation - it’s Sarah/Todd.

As private citizens, they are working non stop for our country.

need to post this.

AS 15.20.450. Requirement of Deposit. The application must include a deposit in cash, by certified check, or by bond with a surety approved by the director. The amount of the deposit is $1,000 for each precinct, $2,000 for each house district, and $15,000 for the entire state. If the recount includes an office for which candidates received a tie vote, or the difference between the number of votes cast was 20 or less or was less than .5 percent of the total number of votes cast for the two candidates for the contested office, or a question or proposition for which there was a tie vote on the issue, or the difference between the number of votes cast in favor of or opposed to the issue was 20 or less or was less than .5 percent of the total votes cast in favor of or opposed to the issue, the application need not include a deposit, and the state shall bear the cost of the recount. If, on the recount, a candidate other than the candidate who received the original election certificate is declared elected, or if the vote on recount is determined to be four percent or more in excess of the vote reported by the state review for the candidate applying for the recount or in favor of or opposed to the question or proposition as stated in the application, the entire deposit shall be refunded. If the entire deposit is not refunded, the director shall refund any money remaining after the cost of the recount has been paid from the deposit.

AS 15.20.480. Procedure For Recount. In conducting the recount, the director shall review all ballots, whether the ballots were counted at the precinct or by computer or by the district absentee counting board or the questioned ballot counting board, to determine which ballots, or part of ballots, were properly marked and which ballots are to be counted in the recount, and shall check the accuracy of the original count, the precinct certificate, and the review. The director shall count absentee ballots received before the completion of the recount. For administrative purposes, the director may join and include two or more applications in a single review and count of votes. The rules in AS 15.15.360 governing the counting of ballots shall be followed in the recount when a ballot is challenged on the basis of a question regarding the voter's intent to vote for the candidate, proposition, or question. The ballots and other election material must remain in the custody of the director during the recount, and the highest degree of care shall be exercised to protect the ballots against alteration or mutilation. The recount shall be completed within 10 days. The director may employ additional personnel necessary to assist in the recount.

AS 15.20.460. Determination of Date of Recount. If the director determines that the application is substantially in the required form, the director shall fix the date of the recount to be held within three days after the receipt of an application requesting a recount of the general election votes cast for the office of governor and lieutenant governor and within five days after the receipt of an application requesting a recount for any other office, question, or proposition.

AS 15.20.440. Form of Application. (a) The application shall state in substance the basis of the belief that a mistake has been made, the particular election precinct or election district for which the recount is to be held, the particular office, proposition, or question for which the recount is to be held, and that the person making the application is a candidate or that the 10 persons making the application are qualified voters. The candidate or persons making the application shall designate by full name and mailing address two persons who shall represent the applicant and be present and assist during the recount. Any person may be named representative, including the candidate or any person signing the application. Applications by 10 qualified voters shall also include the designation of one of the number as chair. The candidate or persons making the application shall sign the application and shall print or type their full name and mailing address. (b) Candidates, political parties, or organized groups having a direct interest in a recount and who are seeking to protect their interests during a recount may provide, at their own expense, two or more observers to witness the recount.

Thank you very much! I have just pinged you with the Sarah ping list to Lisa’s latest!

100% of the prescints have been counted.

Joe maintains his lead but it’s narrowed.

The absentee ballots “might” still determine the winner.

"A 1.62% spread..... Dangerously close, and 2 precincts left to count."

Why is it that whenever there is a close race between a conservative and liberal that the late votes and absentee ballots always go in favor of the liberal? Got a bad feeling that the machine is working overtime to get the count "right".

I might have heard Eyeliner Boy wrong, but he mentioned that there were 15,000 absentee ballots yet to be counted, which doesn’t make any sense. Usually they count the absentees first, then the rest of the ballots cast that night are counted.
