I think you meant “entitled”. Spellcheck does not catch correctly spelled, but improperly used, words.

Aside from winning straight out by getting more votes on election day, Barry’s only other chance was in the provisional ballot count. That didn’t work either.

As far as I know, no recount has ever changed the outcome of an election. The number of votes can change, usually not by much and most of the time it appears the winner picks up more but the outcome doesn’t.

The only thing for certain is that taxpayers will be out some amount of money for Barry’s and potentially Schneider’s vanity.

Jackson,
Look to the Washington Governor’s race in 2004. The Democrat lost the election by 3,400 votes. After two or three recounts he suddenly won the race based upon 10,000 “found” ballots during the second recount. The democrat candidate’s advisor in the recount is the same person now advising Al Franken in Minnesotta.

Democrats have ways of making votes appear when they need them

Hey, how can I argue with another Jackson?

What I am hoping is that Missouri’s laws protect against such shenanagins. It’s my understanding, and it could be wrong, that they merely go through the ballots that were already counted and turned in including the provisional ballots that were accepted. To my knowledge, thete were no challenges to those provisional ballots.

So, in light of your example, let me restate my claim. In no FAIR recount has the recount made any difference in who won or lost.

The vote count in the Barry campaign changed upwards of 8 times. This race, dedided by less than 1/10 of a percent, should be recounted.
