1. I love the Electoral College...but...
|
I'm concerned that the R's will try to rig the voting when it's formalized in Congress?
Adelman and Rove still have the money to hire spooks to hack the results? I'm not whining! I'm concerned that the result is in the range where cheating makes it possible to STEEL! Or Not. |

6. Obama's popular vote lead has expanded to 3.2 million
|
Bush won by 3,012,166, so Obama's lead over Romney is about 200,000 votes more than Bush's final numbers over Kerry.

8. Alan West (R) still shown losing by 2,442
|
Patrick Murphy leads by 0.74% (i.e. less than 1%). Alan West wants recount. Florida rules automatically kick in if difference is less than 0.50%. Section (7) Florida Statute 102.141

9. On MSNBC today, they said West was rejected by the court in his request to
|
impound ballots (or something like that where he wanted to study them for fraud and recount them). He's finished. My parents voted for Murphy They live in W. Palm Beach.

11. Thanks. I'll add it to my OP.

I know we already knew it, but this makes it "official," I guess.
