FORT PIERCE A St. Lucie County Circuit Court judge denied Allen Wests request for a recount of all the countys early votes in his District 18 race, which narrowly favored Patrick Murphy.
Judge Dan Vaughn said the circuit court didn't have the authority to grant a recount in this case. However, Vaughn said the canvassing board can act on its own accord as it considers an early voting recount at a 4 p.m. meeting.

bounced out of. He will keep bringing suits until he starts getting hit with court costs and attorneys' fees. Which cannot come soon enough.
