OLYMPIA, Wash. (AP) - Republican Dino Rossi says he's asked Democrat Christine Gregoire to join him in asking the Legislature to pass a bill allowing a statewide revote in the governor's race.

You're probably right. But people need to fight back against these obvious thefts to the point where the Dems dread their old standby tactics. It's disgusting that GreGORE and the WA courts allowed this fraud to occur.

And they have the nerve to say the Reps are on a fishing expedition?

Of course, Democrats are going to cheat. This is because their core beliefs, if honestly communicated, will always be rejected by rational people. Thus they must constantly resort to subterfuge in order to stay in the game.

Well stated. I've heard it put differently as well: If the Democrats stated their means and ends frankly to the American people, they would be repudiated with disgust.

We should have kept one county back to offset King County. Recall that the only way Nixon won Illinois in 1968 was to hold Lake County until Cook County reported.

RATS are scheming liars. I don't understand how any GOP operative in any election coast to coast would believe for a second that RATS will play by the rules.

As of right now the Republican secretary of state has certified the Dem the winner so apparently the officials of the state know who won

The same RINO who certified this one for CGore after supporting the changing of the rules for one county only also certified the previous two for Rossi this month.

The Rossi campaign is simultaneously asking for all the names of King County voters (actually requested it two days before) along with his request for a revote. His strategy is sound, and if out of state posters would do a simple search of WA Vote Fraud, Rossi - Gregoire, etc., they'd find many threads on the subject, and I believe they'd be far less inclined to demand that we let this fraud take hold of our state. You can roll over in your own state if you want.

We're backing our candidate.

I hope she says no. Will make her look like she in fact did rig the voting in King County.

"Recall that the only way Nixon won Illinois in 1968 was to hold Lake County until Cook County reported."



In 1968, Nixon beat Humphrey in IL by 135,000 votes, and he carried Lake County by 25,000 votes. Nixon beat Humphrey not by having Lake County report late, but by winning by such large margins in the Collar Counties and Downstate that it was too large of a lead for the Daley Machine to erase in Chicago.

Just heard on the radio that the WA state SecState said that they are between 99.9% and 99.99% sure of the results of the election so he has no problem certifying the results of the last recount.

Isn't .09% of 2.8 million votes about 2,800 votes?

What a maroon.

I am thinking there may be leverage in this request. The fact that there were more votes than registered voters may have something to do with it.

Rossi must be a real dumbass. How someone can win on election night, win the recount, and then not be governor makes no sense.

Yeah, and what about the 3,500 phantom votes in King County?

Well .. when Chris Wallace is interviewing Rossi and not Christine - I'd say some of the media is not buying the dem win.

The woman was incompetent as an AG, she can do real damage in the statehouse. What mandate? What for Rossi was a questionable slim lead is a landslide for her. She will never do what needs to be done to get this state in shape fiscally. On the other hand what we save in legal judgements due to her buffoonery, might just make up for what she will screw up elsewhere.
