Patrick Murphy sounds like white Irish to me so how come the rats don’t consider Murphy’s objection to a recount racism?
Yep - my first thought too - they will not properly guard the facilities and someone will break in overnight...
ALLEN WEST RECOUNT UPDATE via Dale Davis: Just by the numbers:
Our winning number is 3,308
Our winning magic number is 1,907 (still a recount)
Our mandatory recount number is 1,654
254 more votes needed to kick in a three county
mandatory recount of every ballot cast.
If there is a vote swing of just 127 ballots
then we will recount the whole Congressional District 18.
(vote swing means if Murphy lost a vote, and West gained a vote that is a two vote swing, hence double 127= 254)
So in St. Lucie County:
West......... 52,672
Murphy....... 65,567
difference....(12,895) if this number drops below 12,641
there will be a mandatory recount.
If the (12,895) drops to 9,587 Allen West is the winner, no recount.
Did anybody ask and/or find out from the election officials just what was in the boxes that were carried in yesterday or are we supposed to assume the worst???
