State Republican Party Chairman Chris Vance said an admission by election workers in King County that provisional ballots had been counted without verification is "absolute proof" of the need for a new election, the Associated Press reports. This is a bombshell. The entire reasoning behind making some ballots provisional is the requirement of verification.

If the election was flawed, then it was flawed when Dino was calling on Chris to concede. However the election was not flawed then...because he was in the lead! But when the final recount put Chris in the lead, Dino and his minions started to turn over every stone to see if there was a way to cast doubt on the election. My question is, why wasn't he checking the election bookkeeping before, when he was in the apparent lead? If you think you can't lead with out a mandate...shouldn't you check all the auditors work before declaring victory? Hypocrossi! Orca
