And I love that the total adds up to 101%!

I didn’t even pay any attention to that. The (R) side really needs that seat to give us a 2/3 majority.

“Fortunately, 1,600 will be a tough number to overcome in a single Congressional district.”

It will take three or four recounts, with court-ordered exclusion of some ballots.

hey, did they count the military ballots yet? Are they sitting in a warehouse somewhere stateside?

I just rec’d an email from Renee Ellmer’s Campaign that said they had asked the National Republican Congressional Committee for funds to help with all the lawyering up they will need in the flim-flam recount that Bob “The DC Strangler” Etheridge is demanding 2 hrs after 400 more votes - all in HIS name of course - were suddenly found...

THE NRCC *REFUSED* TO HELP THIS TEA PARTY WINNER JUST AS THEY **REFUSED** TO HELP HER IN THE CAMPAIGN!!!!!

PLEASE MAKE SURE THIS GOES VIRAL!!! I am FURIOUS at the NRCC!!!

Ellmers’ campaign needs cash and volunteers too - and fast. I volunteered and will be giving cash. Please help if you can?

Thanks!

One quick note on the headline: Etheridge is NC2, not NC4.

That article didn’t explain very much, did it? Actually, it referred to a 450-vote swing towards Etheridge, not to 450 ballots being found and all being for Etheridge. Even in a black precinct in Sampson County there would be a handful of votes for Ellmers and third-party candidates if they found 450 ballots.

Yeah, the reporting is pathetic.

What went wrong for Etheridge? Did the rigged voting machines malfunction?

Why isn’t Ellmers in court over this NOW? They should be able to avoid the state corruptocrats by finding a voter in that district and file in fed court under the VRA.

Link the latest WRAL whitewash. The magical 450 have apparently been "affirmed". Sickening.

Agreed. They’re street fighters. We’re the pouting losers who stand there and whine, “That’s not fair!” They laugh and walk away with the prize. Then we go back to our corners with our feelings hurt to pout and do nothing to prepare for the next time.

WE are Charlie Brown. THEY are Lucy.

Over and over.

Well, just as I predicted...

If Etheridge gets this recount, he will steal this election. I grew up in North Carolina. I’ve been watching NC Democrats do this ALL MY LIFE. My folks live in this crooks district. Dad told me yesterday he’d steal it. That he’d “find” enough votes to call for a recount — and sure enough, he’s manufactured enough to qualify for a recount.

Anyone wanna make odds now that he won’t find the 1500 or so more to get his sorry Leftist butt seated back in his office in DC?! If I were in the Tea Party in his district I’d be in the election officials offices like mold on bad bread. You guys in North Carolina have your work cut out for you if you want this kind of corruption to STOP. Chicago ain’t got NOTHING on NORTH CAROLINA DEMOCRATS!

According to his history, disraeligears has been an irregular poster for ten years, but has only made a couple of posts this year. Seems to be a good conservative without a lot of time for Freeping.

You missed the implied reference to Ethridge’s on-camera rage, “who are you? WHO ARE YOU?”

Getting slow. I have been preoccupied with my local Congressman, Alan Grayson. Etheridge is a pussycat.
