Steal this one? They haven't stolen anything. The current law regarding tallying the vote is being followed. The revote being touted by the Republicans would require action by the legislature...which is republican dominated. So after all the votes are counted...we need a revote if it isn't Dino? That's what I would call stealing. By the way Cantwell led Gorton in all the tallies, including the recounts. That's not stealing either. The republicans want folks to believe that Dino won the election already, but the margin was so small that recounts are automatic, and hand recounts are under the law. As we see, there have been additional votes added to the tally from almost every county. This is not an endemic problem of King County. It's just the reality of tabulating. In an election every legally cast vote must be counted. Just because King County makes an error in updating their computer signature records a person should not be denied their right to vote, especially when they did everything correctly in casting their vote. What is clear is that the republicans will do everything in their power to keep votes from being counted...that's stealing the election. Orca
