The claim that "Bush stole the 2000/2004 elections" is a total myth. It has been proven to be totally bogus by every major media (even CNN, ABC, CNBC, MSNBC). All the media went to Florida after the 2000 election and also did the same for Michigan in 2004 HOPING to find evidence to support the "stolen election" claim. They found zip. If they had you can be sure they would have howled about it non-stop.

Ahh, but it wasn't proven and certified by DU.  :lalala:
NAMBLA is a left-wing organization.

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

Huh?  How is it allowed to even be sworn in until the vote is certified?

I wonder if Hoffman will push this, and how hard.

Conklin said the state sent a letter to the House Clerk last week explaining that no winner had been determined in the 23rd District, and therefore the state had not certified the election. But the letter noted that Owens still led by about 3,000 votes, and that the special election was not contested -- two factors that legally allowed House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to swear in Owens on Friday.

Of course Pelosi would have raced to swear him in no matter what.

I'd like to see the text of the law that allegedly allows it.

That would be nice if the wholething could be thrown out and redone but it wont happen only wishful thinking

Hi,

I doubt they would re do the house bill; however it aint over.  The house and senate would have to reconcile if the bill passes the senate and their is no guarantee that it would pass the house a second time.

Heard today the spread is down to under 2,000 votes with abt 9,000 absentee ballots uncounted. If they are military, he stands a chance. If they are "just folks" votes, he prolly will not.

What I keep reading is far less rosy - that the lead has only shrunken to 2950 or so, and there are just over 5 thousand left to count.

Maybe Senator Franken has some lawyers he can loan to Owen.   :whatever:

I've been trying to follow this saga.  Most indications are it will be back in the news, for good or bad, tomorrow.

Not yet.  The left-stream media is surprisingly predictably being tight-lipped about the election results now after being quick to call the race for Owens.

The last news is that Owens is actually gaining votes, and that the differential may be greater than the remaining ballots. I expect there will be a re-concession tomorrow.

Ive not seen any of this anywhere - the last I have read was a 3000+ vote gap, and less than 900 ballots left to count.

It's fascinating to watch the liberals now dismiss claims of election fraud and electronic voting machine errors.  I guess those things only happen when the Democrat loses.

Yup same thing applies to voting margins.  Republican wins by a large margin = Voter Apathy or fraud...Democrat wins by 2% = Mandate by the people.

ELECTRONIC VOTING was reported, wrongly, for Hoffman as zero in some districts. Now, it was more than one. Sure smells of fraud to this old poll watcher.

I also heard on the radio that the other two candidates, Owens and Scuzzbucket, had their votes recorded just fine in those same districts.
