Commissioner Tod Mowery is a Republican who was charged with overseeing Saturdays vote tabulation in the District 18 race. Mowery is the vice-chair of the board of county commissioners in St Lucie County. After a full 12 hour day of counting, the poll workers finalized the bulk of the work, and plan to be back at 8 a.m. to finish up and announce the results.
Mowery talked about the process in an interview with BizPac Review. He expressed a desire to restore public trust in his countys voting system.

Yes. How else can you explain the HUGH turnout of “the young”? (college morons). They vote in the state where they go to “school”, “absentee” their home state and every other state that they’ve ever been to. Our voting system is totally broken and corrupt. Banana republic style. Saddam Hussein would be ashamed of what is going on here on election day.
They probably know they have ‘found’ enough votes that it won’t matter who is in charge. Esp, an honest wimpy Republican.I hope he isn’t tho.

Not true. Go to the following report of the results and you'll see the actual numbers listed. They will change as this recount becomes final.
St Lucie County unofficial Results without Provisionals
Page 2 175554 Registered Voters 124031 Times Counted 123591 Total Votes 397 Times Blanks Voted 43 Times Over Voted Page 6 Totals Romney 56125 45.41% Obama 66246 53.60% Scan on down to pages 8 - 10 - 12 for the totals of other misc. candidates/write-ins
It’s also explained on the home page of the St Lucie County Home Page:
NOTE* - TURNOUT PERCENTAGES WILL SHOW OVER 100% DUE TO A TWO PAGE BALLOT. THE TABULATION SYSTEM (GEMS) PROVIDES VOTER TURNOUT AS EQUAL TO THE TOTAL CARDS CAST IN THE ELECTION DIVIDED BY THE NUMBER OF REGISTERED VOTERS. ALSO NOTE THAT SOME VOTERS CHOSE NOT TO RETURN BY MAIL THE SECOND CARD CONTAINING THE AMENDMENTS.
It’s a shame that a misconception in the process gets into cyber space and can never be corrected. The orginal article that started this was corrected but too late now for total correction.
Hopefully we’ll be getting results before too much longer. They have to hand count the 304 ballots because of a write in candidate on them. Depending upon if the write was for president or some other office they may not change the results of the totals in the 18th CD.
I would also like to know what was in the two boxes brought in yesterday that they found in a high school gymnasium and elsewhere.
I would also like to know how Gertrude is more popular than Obama in St Lucie -- getting 10,000 more votes than he did while her opponent got 15,000 less than Romney.
I would also like to know how Gertrude is more popular.....

LOL....... Heck she is queen of the county, don’tcha know.
Reckon she’ll be released from the hospital this afternoon after the retab is completed?
Our voting system is crazy. And they are talking about electing the President by a popular vote. Given the extent of the country. you know what a mess that would be. The different departments of the Federal government dont even have a common method for checking out security risks.
