I heard that ballots were added that had been found "stuck" in voting machines and others that had been accidentally thrown out (however that came to be), and that unverified provisional ballots had been tossed in, as well. That sounds like additional votes, to me.

Was it King County where there are more votes than voters? Wow, that's really counting all the votes -- add a few extras so you have an overcount, just to make sure there's no undercount. LOL.

I thought new votes we added....is that not the case?

Provisional ballots were run through counting machines without being validated.

Felons were allowed to vote.

Votes were cast by dead people.

Military ballots were sent out too late for people stationed overseas to return them (in fact, the Feds threatened the state with a lawsuit over this).

King County has well over a thousand more ballots having been counted than records for voters who cast those ballots.

And now, just in today's Seattle Times, there is news of yet another 1,800 vote foul-up.

How much is enough?

We need a revote.

ps - here's a picture from the rally in Olympia today. Why am I not surprised that the demolib left would resort to calling people who want a revote Fascists?
