If Allen West wants it, we should get behind him like the Chick-fil-a movement. This fraud in Florida appears to be what happened in many of the swing states. That the MSM is not even demonizing West is a dead giveaway that there is a Benghazi-like scandal here that could bring Obama down. West has all my support. He is far mmore impressive than Romney.

I would not be surprised if he GOP is actively working with Dems to thwart Allen West

St Lucie County is not liberal like Palm Beach or the other So Florida counties...so something tells me that West may be sandbagged by the GOP as well

We should not be surprised if it is the GOP. They re-districted West into a more liberal district. And, it is the same GOP that refused to do anything on Obama Birth Certificate/Eligibility....and still refuses to do anything on Benghazi

Nice article. But it really, really needs to be edited. It is so bad that it make the entire web site look illiterate.

You ask what can we do to help Allen West. I think we should:

1- email protests to Governor Scott demanding St. Lucie recount ALL early votes as promised on the public notice.
BECAUSE: the partial recount had a 5% error rate, much too high to trust the final result.

Leave off all the outrage about the rest of the country, don't insist it is fraud or corruption. Keep it short and sweet. If enough people do this, he has the power to overrule the Supervisor in the public interest, and oversee the recount. Be respectful and sign your name. Venting, threats, accusations and profanity just guarantee your message will be ignored.

That's what West wants- let's give it to him.

2- We can send money to him to help pay for the inevitable legal challenges. Avoid all the pleas from anyone but him. You can contribute here: https://www.allenwestforcongress.com/contribute/

I am pretty confident a recount of all 37000 early votes in St Lucie will lower the margin of victory enough to trigger the complete recount of all 3 counties. All he needs is 260 more votes!

3- If you use Facebook, send messages to state Republican Party Chair Lenny Curry. He has made positive comments in support of West, but he can do a lot more: money, lawyers, pressure. https://www.facebook.com/LennyCurry
Lenny is a CPA- he can count- he understands numbers. A 5% error rate is TOO HIGH.

4- If you live in the Congressional District, contact your elected officials and make the same case. Be reasonable- it is a reasonable argument. They publicly noticed a count of all 37000 and refused to explain the changed decision. The partial count had a 5% error rate, too high not to question the accuracy of the full count. Don't accuse anyone of fraud- blame the equipment. You want to be heard, not dismissed as a flamethrower.

Or we can just rage, or complain, and make accusations, and let him go down in flames. Your choice- I've made mine.
