State GOP gets specific about election charges
Court filing is effort to speed up calls for governor's race revote

The state Republican Party presented more precise allegations yesterday of voter fraud and election irregularities, hoping to speed up the fact-finding portion of its legal challenge to Christine Gregoire's election as governor.
In a filing in Chelan County Superior Court, the GOP said preliminary comparisons of a statewide voter file obtained Saturday from the Secretary of State's Office and other databases showed:
*437 provisional ballots were counted without first being verified.
*37 felons who have not had the right to vote restored voted in the election.
*Nine dead people were credited with voting.
*20 people in Washington who also voted in another state.
*10 people voted twice.
Much of what was in the documents has been discussed before, but yesterday's court filing provided more specific details about the Republicans' arguments in their attempt to have a revote in the governor's race.
...
Tomorrow, Chelan County Superior Court Judge John Bridges will hear arguments for and against expediting the fact-finding segment of the lawsuit. Republicans will also oppose the Democrats' request to dismiss the case entirely on grounds that only the Legislature, not the courts, has the constitutional authority to settle a contested governor's election.
Definately widespread election fraud if the entire election isn't completely reconciled 2-3 weeks after it is finished.
I would encourage every DU'er to file lawsuits with your banks if you can't get your bank account to match your Quicken register.
