[noclonyofthechimp]

2. I agree and Attorney David Burman is very sharp.

[DoYouEverWonder]

3. Do you know the makeup of the WA Supreme Court?

This case could be the one that makes the rules and I just hope the rule makers are on our side?

[noclonyofthechimp]

5. I do not know there makeup. It does seem that this could set a precedence

for Ohio and possibly other states.

[DoYouEverWonder]

4. The lawyer for Sec of State Hood

arguing that a recount and recanvas are not the same thing.

That a recount in not a right, it is a statutory (?).

[DoYouEverWonder]

6. Some WA counties are refusing to recount

or recanvas.

What recourse would the people have if the canvasing board refuses?

Trying to define recount.

[GetTheRightVote]

This is getting just plain crazy, the election officials screwed up

so count the votes, this lawyers is screwed in the head, I hope the judges do not listen to him and let them be counted as they should be, I am crossing my frees for these people !!!!

[skids]

20. Well, fine then.

As long as the Democratic counties counties count :-)

It isn't like we didn't offer.

We'll see how long they "refuse to recount" once she has the lead.

(And if they still do, we know something is reeeeeeal fishy.)

[bush_is_wacko]

7. I'm listening to this now.

but I'm wondering what bearing it will have of FRAUD. It's all about recounting!

[DoYouEverWonder]

8. It's all part of building the case for fraud

this is just the first step. Hopefully the WA Supreme court will be a favorable venue for our side.

9. I feel like this reeks of Bushism...

Not counting ballots? Disqualifying voters? Not in my name...

[DoYouEverWonder]

10. Kings County on now

Rejected ballots are kept secured but not kept in sealed containers.

Observers are allowed to watch the tabulation process.

What happens when an observer objects to something?

They have to speak with a supervisor who will address the issue.

Have not had any problems with this part of the process.

Contest statutes are the remedy for after the canvassing board makes their decision.

[IAMREALITY]

11. Not Bumped

IT WAS NEVER SCHEDULED TO BEGIN WITH. EVER.

[DoYouEverWonder]

12. Guy up now - went to Jim Baker School of elections

Same crap arguments they gave for Gore v Bush.

[G_j]

13. yes

I am feeling ill... :puke:

[leftchick]

14. is he the one with the fascist flag pin??

I associate them all as repukes now when I see them.

[DoYouEverWonder]

15. He's on now, with the white hair

He is very condescending.

[G_j]

17. talks like a 'reptile' too... n/t

[Hamoth]

16. Recanvas? what does this mean exactly?

They keep saying "recanvasing" but what does that mean in this context?

[DoYouEverWonder]

18. They are claiming that we are trying to redefine recount

and that what we are asking for is actually a re-canvas. However, it is the Repugs that are trying to redefine recount.

19. for those of us without TV ect can you recap the concerns and

the main points?
