OLATHE, Kan. (AP) — A decisive statewide vote in favor of abortion rights in traditionally conservative Kansas was confirmed with a partial hand recount, with fewer than 100 votes changing after the last county reported results Sunday.

Nine of the state’s 105 counties recounted their votes at the request of Melissa Leavitt, who has pushed for tighter election laws. A longtime anti-abortion activist, Mark Gietzen, is covering most of the costs. Gietzen acknowledged in an interview that it was unlikely to change the outcome.

A no vote in the referendum signaled a desire to keep existing abortion protections and a yes vote was for allowing the Legislature to tighten restrictions or ban abortion. After the recounts, “no” votes lost 87 votes and “yes” gained 6 votes.

Eight of the counties reported their results by the state’s Saturday deadline, but Sedgwick County delayed releasing its final count until Sunday because spokeswoman Nicole Gibbs said some of the ballots weren’t separated into the correct precincts during the initial recount and had to be resorted Saturday. She said the number of votes cast overall didn’t change.

1. Accepting Election Results

The Qpublican party will never accept defeat and always claim that there was massive cheating. Like what they did with abortion, they are playing the long game. Already before the rogue SCOTUS, there is a case for legislators to overturn election results and appoint their own.

2. We beat them badly

and I do not think their egos let them even imagine losing.

Gietzen, who covered most of the costs of this recount, is now demanding another and he says he is NOT going to pay for it. They could not even raise enough money for a statewide recount so I wonder where the money will come from? LOL. LOSERS!

Hopefully he will be laughed at and bypassed. They will be doing this forever because they never even thought we had a chance.

Again, LOSERS!

3. I bet they will count them again.

They will never accept reality.

4. They really hate to lose

Sorry for them. Maybe the dog catching the RvW car was a stupid pre-midterm move.
I'm still glad that my Kansas didn't embarrass me.
