Kerry/Edwards officially are now part of the Ohio Recount. Papers Filed.

Vote Cobb ^

[Next_Time_NJ]

Ohio — Today, attorneys representing the Kerry-Edwards campaign filed papers in Delaware County, Ohio to intervene in legal proceedings in defense of Green Party presidential candidate David Cobb, Libertarian Michael Badnarik and their legal counsel, the National Voting Rights Institute, who are seeking a recount of all votes cast for president in the Ohio 2004 general election.

[Next_Time_NJ]

Simply put... time to unload on them.... we need to get out there..

[NeoCaveman]

Northeast Ohio Ping.

Sounds like the left has Sore Loserman in their DNA.

[Next_Time_NJ]

Sore or not.. dont you think we should respond somehow?

[RightInEastLansing]

Shocker!

[HarryCaul]

Bwhahhahaahah!

Sink baby, and take the Party down with you!

Kerry continues to show the excellent judgement that proves he never should be elected to anything.

The key here is to make SURE this gets pinned on the Dems. Refer to it over and over as the Democratic Recount.

[Rastus]

Would laughing until I can't breathe be response enough?

[ConservativeMan55]

Its OVAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!

Just reported on Foxnews!

The recount was done..and Raplh Mader recieved less than 10 more votes total.

[blogbat]

Strategy-watchers heads up.

[Bullish]

Just like a terrible cancer, they won't go away.

[Next_Time_NJ]

What recount?

[NeoCaveman]

I'm supposed to go to some recount training on Saturday in Cleveland, but I haven't heard much about it.

Also there is something in Columbus to Freep on Saturday to, Jesse Jackass will be there.

[blogbat]

Hee Haw the Jackass is dead ;)

[Perdogg]

Come tomorrow, the vote will be certified for Bush. Meaning that the 20 Ohio electors FOR BUSH will have met the Safe Harbor provisions.

Only the house can challenge them.

[ConservativeMan55]

They reported on Fox that there was a recount of a certain Ohio county..and that Nader only recieved 10 more votes.

[NeoCaveman]

What recount?

The election will be certified on time by 12/6.

If the Left wants to make Ohio spend money on a recount it will all be academic

[Loyal Buckeye]

"What recount?"

That's exactly what Delaware County is asking. They don't want to do it, especially since the third party candidate only received 1 vote. They say it is too expensive.

[Next_Time_NJ]

I hate to disagree with you.. But a recount can only happen after the certification.

[blogbat]

Obviously the frivolous Left has no compassion for the poor and hungry of Ohio. Shoot, there are children going without condoms!

[italianquaker]

i heard they found elvis too
we wonnnnnn

[Dustbunny]

Who gets to pay for this 'recount'?

[eyespysomething]

Welcome to FR.

Are you sure on this one? This is not what I heard Mr. Blackwell saying on MSNBC yesterday -

[NeoCaveman]

Obviously the frivolous Left has no compassion for the poor and hungry of Ohio. Shoot, there are children going without condoms!

I live in a state with the 3rd highest taxes and the kids still go condomless? This is an outrage.

[Perdogg]

Right, but once the vote is certified ONLY THE HOUSE CAN CHALLENGE THE SLATE OF ELECTORS.

[Dog Gone]

Michael Moore has shaved and conceded defeat. This is ridiculous.

[GloriaJane]

I just heard on the news that this person they are filing on behalf of only got one vote in all of Delaware County! And that one vote was a write in! I don't know what Kerry/Edwards are up to but this smells fishy.

[Next_Time_NJ]

Can i ask you all something? Shouldnt we send some big guns down there to put this sh*t to sleep? Can't we just bumrush the whole thing and knock them out with people, lawyers, etc?? Scare them to death, and just knock them out?? Or do you think it would draw too much attention?

[NeoCaveman]

Who gets to pay for this 'recount'?

The tax payers of the state of Ohio net the small fee paid by the Left.

[Next_Time_NJ]

your using caps so i will.. YOU CAN ONLY ASK FOR A RECOUNT AFTER THE CERTIFICATION!

[West Coast Conservative]

Fine. As long as we recount PA and WI.

[blogbat]

"I live in a state with the 3rd highest taxes and the kids still go condomless? This is an outrage."

Where is the humanity? ;)

[Petronski]

The Ohio Recount will not feed one starving child.

[ladyinred]

Here we go. What freaking slime.

[TruthWillWin]

Now we know what "the plan" is.

[Cold Heat]

Looks like they felt obligated, since they are the true party affected.

Now it is a Dem recount and not a Green party and that eliminates the possibility of it being dismissed by a judge.

I fully expect the count to be identical. They are not dealing with goofy chad laws like in Florida. There will be no significant changes in the count, court interventions and the like, and the Electoral College meets in less than two weeks.

I think they are spending money that was collected for this purpose and need to spend it.

[glock rocks]

Just reported on Foxnews!

The recount was done..and Raplh Mader received less than 10 more votes total.

Easy there... accuracy is still important.

What Fox reported was the hand recount of 11 precincts in New Hampshire where Nader received less than 10 additional votes.

[blogbat]

I don't know, I still remember some irregularities during the Chester A. Garfield election. No justice, no peace, yo ;p

[Perdogg]

Under Ohio law, a recount can take place ONLY AFTER THE VOTE IS CERTIFIED. This is protect the Ohio Slate of Electors. Don't you remember Bush V Gore, Per Curiam??? If a recount were to take place before, there is a possiblity that the Ohio Sec of State would not meet the "Safe Harbor" provision of U.S. Electoral law.

[NeoCaveman]

Where is the humanity? ;)

Apparently the humanity is getting it on in the school yards without condoms.

[Moonman62]

This can only hurt the Rats. I hope it gets broad coverage.

[Mo1]

We thought the Deaniacs did a pretty good job sinking the Dem party before

We ain't seen nothing thing yet ..

Let them keep whinning for the next four years .. let them keep pulling the party further to the left

[traderrob6]

Glibs, should run them between 1 - 1.5 mil

[blogbat]

"Apparently the humanity is getting it on in the school yards without condoms."

Well, that does encourage more humanity.


---and probably more liberal dependence humanity.

[vpintheak]

He just can't stop flip-flopping can he? "I conceded the election, before I un-conceeded it."

[Perdogg]

Right, what are we arguing about???? ;) it doesn't matter, because after the vote is certified, the Slate of electors are Bush electors and Only the HoR can challenge them.

[Next_Time_NJ]

No one said he has done that.. Lets keep it that way.

[blogbat]

Maybe they just want us to oppose them so they can scream in '08 that Republicans blocked recounts.

[Next_Time_NJ]

Thats not true... a recount paid for by someone on the ballot can ONLY be done after Blackwell Certifies the vote. It can not be done before that.

[balk]

"I think they are spending money that was collected for this purpose and need to spend it."

Now this sounds like what happens at work. You need to spend the budget in order to get the budget the next time around.

[visualops]

They did alot of fundraising for this very purpose (GELAC?), so it's burning a hole in their collective pocket.
