Seattle's Precinct 1823 counted 343 ballots, which is 71 more ballots than the 272 voters who cast them....
=====
Just the libs' normal modus operandi -- just keep stuffing the ballot box until we win...invent voters, dead voters especially, multiple voting by individuals, etc, etc...more votes counted than registered voters...

Nothing new. Lib state, lib crime.

I agree.

The Olympian says that we need 660,000 valid signatures. Ain't it funny how "validity" doesn't seem to matter when it comes to counting ('rat) votes!

http://www.theolympian.com/home/news/20050113/topstories/68063.shtml

"Reed, who was sworn in for a second term Wednesday, said through a spokeswoman that he is not worried by the recall threat. "He is simply upholding his oath of office," spokeswoman Trova Hutchins said late Wednesday, defending Reed's handling of the governor's election."

In other words, "As long as I control the vote count, I control the outcome"

What the CRATS don't realize that if this voter fraud continues, it will soon be the start of a civil war. The majority of Americans see this as a threat to our very freedom. Don't take this lightly.

Interesting.

So using King County rules, we can just count 660,000 signatures, while only having 500,000 on paper. Just claim that the missing signatures are people that 'forgot' to sign. And dead people and felons can sign. And if someone wants to sign twice, no problem.

If it's no big deal to Dean Logan that these things happen in every election, it should be good enough for a recall petition too.

we cannot allow Democrats to steal elections. We must fight them every time. If we are silent and surrender to them, it will only be a matter of time before our Constitution is completely destroyed and we become just another socialist nation.

Au contraire - NOW that he understands how much we'd like to have every signature examined for it's validity, the SoS office could do no less than to insure that each person who signed the petition is legitimate.

Where do I sign up?

Looks to me like the Dims went too far, too publicly in Washington State. They may actually turn a blue state red.

Is Ringhofer a some-times-candidate, activist, Boeing employee? Is there a link to this writing?

I lived in the "Peoples Republic of King County" for 17 years and was set up as a permanaent absentee voter. When I moved back home to Texas six years ago my business interests in Washington required me to keep a mail forwarding address in Seattle. It took me three years to get the King County election officials to stop sending me ballotts for elections. I thought at the time how easy it would have been to set up a fradulent voter scheme. I guess I was not the only one to figure it out.

I'm not sure that this isn't being a bit unfair to Sam Reed. I think he likely had little choice but to do what the law said he had to do. He's not the one that gets to say whether an election is flawed, even when it might be manifestly so, as is this one.

In fact, he had to certify the election *in order* for a contest to be the next step.

IMHO.

The Sam Reed Recall effort is headed up by Linda Jordan of Seattle.

The Recall Effort has a website:

To all Washington state freepers. This complaint and petition has almost been finalized after review of the RCW's. The petition and complaint on this post were drafts. The blog, 'recallreedblog.blogspot.com' will have the finalized version posted by Sunday night and the complaint will be served on Tuesday, however, until the Attorney General approves the language on the petition we can not gather any signatures.
We have an email now, 'recall@comcast.net'.

Sam Reed took an oath of office.

What is unfair about expecting Sam Reed to keep his word?

Exactly my sentiments. How futile to lay the blame at Reed's doorstep. The Judge won't give any creedance to a frivolous recall. The ABC of recall is written so that a reasonable person can understand it. Being reasonable, there is an issue that can't be skirted. Mixing apples and oranges doesn't spell recall. In any recall effort, mixing of past tense with present tense will get you fruit salad without the proper dressing. Any proper initiating portion of a recall petition to be properly filed is actually filed during the present elected official's actual seated term that has not expired and the charges listed coincide with the term the actual action or actions are alledged to have taken place. Case in question, a 2005 recall of Reed falls after the fact, after Reed's four year term has expired. First grade stuff folks!

Forget counting the number of signatures needed for a recall of Washington's Secretary of State Sam Reed. Take account of which year is which term. Be it not criminal, what Sam Reed did in his prior term has no bearing whatsoever on what Sam Reed has done in his newly elected term. Based on the theory behind this recall we can recall backwards so let us see how far back we can go. Ten years sounds like a good number. Gee, maybe we can even go back further if they are still seated. The recall petition to remove Sam Reed is sorry thing. The petition is badly wanting. Nothing like wanting to beat a dead horse.

You have posed a very good question that brings up the subject of how can a web based recall happen. I can't. There will not be a signing of the Reed recall petition by internet. There are some very astringent regulations for Washington State recalls. First comes the question of the recall's validity. One report said that not even Tim Eyman could not do it with all his money. Sounds about right. Law and Order rules. I am not a betting man but I wager this Reed recall to have been declared dead upon arrival. They are just waiting to bury it.
