GOP: MIAMI-DADE IN COUNTYWIDE RECOUNT - BROWARD SHOULD BE NEXT
TALLAHASSEE - Miami-Dade elections officials began a countywide recount at 1:00 p.m. today, due to yesterday's review of just four precincts, which revealed over 1,800 votes that had not been counted.
Given the massive and well-documented problems in Broward County, which utilized the same new electronic voting machines as in Miami-Dade, the Broward County Supervisor of Elections should IMMEDIATELY begin a recount of all their precincts, machines and tabulators, to make certain every legal vote is counted. Based on a troubling recent report that three voting machines were found THIS MORNING still at a polling place in Fort Lauderdale, the only prudent action is a full recount in Broward.
The Republican Party of Florida demands an immediate recount in Broward - forming an election oversight board is not enough - only by counting every legal vote in this election can amends begin to be made to the betrayed voters in Broward County.

Now the Republicans should pick up Renos cause, and point out the corrupt election officials, trying to steal an election from that poor woman that campaigns through Parkinsons..... Are you saying that the vote screwups violate the Americans with Disabilities act? Good thinking. ;-)
I believe we're getting a good feel for the underlying corruption that exists in at least three Florida counties' election boards.
To: not-alone
That's what I have been saying -- this was meant for November but something caused Reno to call in reinforcements for the primary -- like she was going to get beat!

Paul Hermoza, 27, voted at Precinct 14, but only after two failed attempts. The third time, at 5 p.m., he was able to vote for Reno. I don't get this. These precints had defective machines and they kept using them??

It just does not get any better than this! You can not even make this stuff up. To borrow THE punch line of the tread:
Let the Wookie Win!

LOL!!! You all may get your wish -- they are finding more ballots down in So. FL! Probably enough to get her the recount!

Janet "Recount" Reno
To: Dog; All
I'm confused. Don't we hate Janet Reno? Why do we want her to win? Sorry but I've never heard of McBride and I don't live in Florida. He's not possibly worse than Reno, is he?
To: Rome2000
''But I saw about 40 people in line,'' Hermoza said. ``The second time I saw about 10 people.Translation: I know there had to be at least two votes, because I did.
To: Melinda in TN
Don't we hate Janet Reno? Why do we want her to win? Because when running against Jeb Bush, Reno loses by 20+ points.
McBride still loses against Jeb, but my a smaller margin

Stupid and crooked. "Let's not turn in our vote counts until we see how many are needed to swing it the way we want it to."and they are just practicing
To: hobbes1
They are pathetic, so very pathetic. I almost think these irregularities were "planned" so Reno could contest, instead of losing outright.

McBride pulls in centrist voters who are turned off by Reno. He's a threat to win in November. He seems to have a more conservative image. Whether it's based on reality I don't know.

In other news, an unidentified man was reportedly electrocuted after attempting to stick an ice pick through a stack of vote-a-matic touch screens. :)

Well, that makes sense. I've been away from FR for a while and thought things might have changed. Scared me for a minute. Geez, that woman's ugly!
To: Melinda in TN
in a word YES!
