King County Mess

There is an even bigger mess in the Washington State Gubernatorial Election.  Michelle Malkin links to blogger Stefan Sharkansky, who broke the story yesterday which was followed up by the Seattle Times this morning.

The Seattle Times' Keith Ervin and David Postman report:

"Long after it seemed there couldn't be any more surprises in the November governor's election, King County officials acknowledged yesterday they have found more uncounted ballots.

Over the past week, election workers have found 87 valid absentee ballots that had been left in their envelopes and not counted through three tallies of the closest statewide race in Washington history..."

...The discovery comes as lawyers for the state's political parties argue in court over whether Democratic Gov. Christine Gregoire's election was legitimate.

Gregoire defeated Republican Dino Rossi by 129 votes after a hand recount overturned the results of two machine counts that Rossi had won."

These were absentee ballots folks!  As a military member, this greatly concerns me.

Hugh Hewitt has a great book appropriately titled: If It's Not Close, They Can't Cheat.  See Part II on how elections are manipulated.

With FEC regulations (see post below) and things like this...something is seriously wrong.  We must remain vigilant and continue to expose these shenanigans.
