Hey, Washingtonians, Will The 'Thugs Try And Recall Gregoire

[cali]

if she wins the recount? I was just cruising Fweeperville, and noticed that there's already a petition to try and recall. Could this succeed? What are the rules governing recalls in Washington?

What a bunch of asses

If I lived there I'd be all over their shit

2. Don't you mean

WTF makes you think they CAN?

Christine was a THREE-TIME ATTORNEY GENERAL for the state.

7. Got a hostility problem?

I was asking reasonable questions. I have no idea if they can or can't recall her- that's why I was asking. Thanks for the cap laden attack. Not.

6. Washington recall laws aren't like Calif

the official to be recalled has to be proven of misuse of office or a crime.

[cali]

8. Thank you. That's exactly what I was wondering and

it's reassuring to know that they can't recall her.

[Hamoth]

5. IT would be their own political suicide to do so.

Washington will ahve none of it. And we will win any recall efforts.

15. Come january Washington's congress will be a dem majority

it really doesn't matter what they try to do once she's in office

9. I think the freepers might be a little confused.

First she as to win. Second, it's not as easy as they seem to think to do a recall in Washington.

I don't expect to see it happen. It would have too many damaging ramifications for the Republicans.

11. Freepers confused? Say what?

[Lone_Star_Dem]

18. That did lean toward being redundant.

Some things go without saying.

10. Of course...

That's the "Republican version" of democracy!

13. King County ballots blocked by Pierce County judge

just in from;
The Associated Press
TACOMA, Wash. (AP) — A judge Friday granted a Republican request to block count of hundreds of recently discovered King County ballots in Washington governor's race.


This is from the Daily Olympian breaking news.

What's next????? Whose obstructing the election now???

As I understand the WA rules, county election boards have the right to correct mistakes made in the original count on a recount. The 500 - 700 ballots were set aside in error because the voters' signatures were not scanned into the computer. correct procedure for these ballots was to be taken to where they could be compared to voter signature on hard copy. Instead they were set aside in error. This is a different situation than the 1500 or so ballots that were already determined to be ineligible.

[RaulVB]

14. Based on which legal grounds???

Did they say why?

[merwin]

16. They said it's too late to reconsider ballots

[nannah]

17. no explanation

I included the whole press release. And more ballots were discovered today.

[illflem]

19. No doubt the Demos will take it to the next court level up

hopefully the 9th, the one the cons bitch about being the most liberal in the land.
