[Poll - itics] Recount?
« on: November 05, 2008, 11:23:53 AM »

Help me with this.  Coleman v. Franken race too close.  Mandatory recount.

I guess in something this big, I can see the need, but my question is A.  How do you *fudge* it up the first time, and B.  If you sukk at tallying it up, how do you trust the second count?

There were over 2.4 million votes with a separation of 725.  I get how close that is but....


Seriously.  Think about it.  If the count is wrong, and Franken gets the votes to his side, you *fudge*ed up by 1500 votes.

Were they drunk?  Who's counting this bull*feces*?

*feces*.  I forgot part 2.

Quote
As for the recount itself, Secretary of State Mark Ritchie said he expects "several weeks" to pass before it is complete.

Wait a minute.  Didn't you count the *feces* yesterday in like 12 hours?

Quote
.........as Minnesota officials today prepared for the painstaking process of recounting ballots.


Painstaking?

Feed the *fudge*ers in the scanner right the first time.

And guess what? Today we hear about voting irregularities.  Smiley

Nothing last night from Mr. Franken when he had a slim lead late but all of a sudden today it's a different story. Whatever.

BTW the recount is mandatory per state law when the difference is < 0.5% (I think that's the number). And the recount has to be manual, hence the length of time required for completion. At least that's what I understand.
