The St. Lucie County Canvassing Board has ordered the retabulation of all early votes in the highly contested congressional race between Rep. Allen West (R-Fla.) and Democrat Patrick Murphy, according to Jeffrey Scott Shapiro, a volunteer lawyer for the West campaign. The board voted 2-1 in favor of recounting the votes.
“This retabulation of all early votes as the Supervisor of Elections originally planned is a victory for democracy,” Shapiro told TheBlaze. “This restores some level of trust and public confidence in the system… it was the right thing to do.”
Election officials will begin retabulating the roughly 20,000 additional early votes at 9 a.m. on Saturday, he said.
West needs to gain just 249 votes in those 20,000 ballots to trigger a statutory recount under state law, Shapiro told TheBlaze. West gained 535 votes in the initial recount of 16,275 ballots. Both candidates combined lost 800 votes, however, 80 percent of the decrease was owned by Murphy.

Great news.
What happens to the +100% precincts? Extra votes are thrown out?
We now live in an estate of fascism with pockets of freedom “here and there.”
True
It’s good that you’re spreading the word about Committees of Safety. Residents can also elect a constitutional sheriff in their county, and then set up a 2,000 man auxiliary deputy force for “emergencies.”
~ Or ~ the dems are willing to throw Murphy under the Obama bus and let West have it to keep the populace from further agitation.
Well, judging from the number of Romney vs. obama signs I saw, there is no way the sob legally won in Hillsborough County either. The polls had not even been closed 30 minutes when it was announced that obama was getting 56% of the vote. Soom way the Democrats stole this election.
I would opine that it is a combination of both. I would also hazard a guess that sometime between now and 2016 a movement will be started to allow obama to have a third term.....and a fourth.
Their answers were probably truthful. They exist in their own world of sexual divants and perverts , patting themselves on their backs, and counting their money. They have no idea, nor do they wish to learn what is happening in the real world.
“Wish I lived in Texas...are their any illinois-like weather areas in Texas?”
Take from a life-long Texan -
Texas is a land of extremes, for the most part, and if it’s cold or hot or moderate depends on which season of the year it is and whether a “cold-front” has entered the state and how far it gets before it weakens.
In the far north panhandle area it gets much colder and it snows a lot more than in the rest of the state. That would be Amarillo and Lubbock. But when it is hot, they are hot as well. In none of these descriptions would they track with Illinois-like weather. They are described in relation to the rest of Texas, not the midwest.
Dallas-FW, Austin, San Antonio, Houston etc are very humid gigantic cities and the humidity along with seasonal heat can be crushing. When a dry norther blows through DFW it can be beautiful after it warms up a bit. The others don’t typically get a strong norther being too far south, but occasionally even they will briefly get cold.
The most “moderate” climate is along the coast and a bit inland from it. But there snow, and even cold temps are unusual.
People in Texas depend heavily on air conditioners and heating, in season. They adjust their outdoor activities according to the weather at a given moment and they make adjustments as best they can.
I have been to Illinois and a few other midwestern states. I was there in summer and to me it was unbearably hot and humid at that time. We got a bit of relief when cool air dropped down from Canada, during my trip. Otherwise, I found it utterly stifling. There was not a hint of breeze and the humidity was worse than anything I imagined possible.
At that time I was living in relatively dry West Texas, although I was born and lived originally in Fort Worth.
If you want to move to Texas, you will have to make adjustments to Texas and in very little way would it be like Illinois. No matter where in Texas you went. But you might find some days that are hot and humid in one of the cities I mentioned, that would remind you of hot, humid days in Illinois. But what’s good about that??

We neeed to do that as conservatives, in every state of the Union.Soon such emergency forces will be absolutely necessary.
They are there but you have to hunt for them.
Exactly.
That's what I'm thinkin'.
No correction necessary. “Their” is possessive. If there IS fraud, they own it.
check these precincts out and how many voted.

850) 488-7146
even if not a national recount and investigation then WI, PA, FL, OH, VA , Mia Loves race in UT need to be looked at because there was massive fraud and rigged elecitons plus resutls which do not add up or make any sense, .
It seems that Soros and his ilk have bene focusing on the local Dem counties in the swing states, remember Stalin said
it’s not who votes what matters , it is who counts the votes what matters ad we all know how this new Dem party likes their commie pals.
