Sound Politics - Another Smoking Gun

Wednesday's Seattle Times explains some of the astonishing discrepancy between the number of ballots cast and the number of voters who voted:

An unknown number of provisional voters, some of whom may not even have been registered to vote, improperly put their ballots directly into vote-counting machines at polling places, King County's elections superintendent said yesterday.

Once those ballots went into the machines, there was no way to separate them from legitimate ballots.

Chris Vance will discuss this at a press conference later on Wednesday. I've seen an email from a polling place and canvass worker who will be speaking at the press conference about what he witnessed. It's pretty damning stuff and the numbers of questioned ballots is large relative to Gregoire's margin of "victory".

Meanwhile, what does Governor-pretend Fraudoire have to say about all of this? She says: "Calm down"

"The idea of a redo I find to be absolutely ludicrous," Gregoire said. "It's particularly unfortunate we're somehow suggesting these county election officials haven't done their job, when there is absolutely no evidence to support that."

Doesn't that just tell you how hard a Governor Gregoire would work to defend the citizens against bureaucratic incompetence? And that's just one of the reasons why we fight so hard to nullify this dreadful woman's illegitimate "victory". Posted by Stefan Sharkansky at January 05, 2005 12:37 AM
