1. in that top thread several posters mention you can't recount

on that machine. True? If so, its a legal fight, not a recount.

[greeneyedboy]

2. right. the FLA dem link says "recount" but i think the money is to pursue this in court.

[greeneyedboy]

3. they're almost at their goal--$2k more needed. 40 people giving $50 would do the trick.

[greeneyedboy]

4. now less than $1500 needed to reach their goal. send 'em 20 bucks to help the cause.

EDIT: and of course they have now raised their goal to $35k.

5. Why isn't the DNCC paying for this directly? and immediately?

[ShaneGR]

7. Well, no real info that they aren't....

It's a fundrasing goal for the Florida Dem Party, it's not clear whether additional funding is coming from the national level. I'd suspect there is.

9. They aren't? I thought they were. Where did you read this? link.

?

You mean the DNC, I guess. The DCCC has played a huge role in this district, picking the candidate. They are probably providing money and resources as well.

11. keep the fight going on all four fronts: legal, fundraising, media/p.r., and field (streets).

this is outrageous.

12. I Thought They Might Have Decided To Lay Off For One

election anyway, BUT NO!!

And it's just too much to swallow that THIS glitch was a GLITCH! The numbers are just too big and nothing compares or matches... even past elections!

Kind of like a RED flag, and while taking the house & senate makes me very happy, WE HERE, are STILL dealing with the same old CRAP!!

14. This race looks stolen.

• Florida’s 13th District: A recount, scheduled for early next week, is already assured in this contest between Democrat Christine Jennings and Republican Vern Buchanan, who leads by 373 votes — less than one-tenth of 1 percent of all ballots cast, according to the latest count.

Voting irregularities in Sarasota County have complicated the counting: Records show 18,382 people who cast a ballot did not vote in the 13th District race, a number far higher than seen in any other contests on the ballot. But Sarasota County elections supervisor Kathy Dent has attributed these “undervotes” to the vitriolic campaign between Buchanan and Jennings, which she suggested turned many voters off to both candidates.

Another obvious stolen election in Florida:
