Tedisco Has 12 Vote Lead After Recheckin Machines and Correcting Typos

This isn't a recount, note. Just a "re-canvass," which I guess just means making sure you entered in the right tallies.

So, Tedisco leads, barely... until the inevitable recount begins discovering hundreds of votes from Al Franken supporting sections of Minnesota.

More [DrewM.] Here's a round up of the returned absentee ballots to date by party and county.

This was one issue I turned out to be wrong on. I predicted that without the affects of Obama and McLame the Republican would win easily. Well it turns out Obama is still carrying the liberals and the Republicans still did not turn out. Someone familiar with this guy and the 20th district says the Republican is a RINO. That just shows that the wigs picking so-called “centrist” candidates is still killing the party. It appears that Republicans are just no longer going to vote for liberal RINOs.

And it also appears this one will be a little harder to “find” votes in trunks of cars since the polls were ordered to impound and lock up all the ballots immediately after the election.

4 Sweet.  Military absentee votes will hold the line.

5 I guess I should have been paying more attention to the news than surfing for Carla Bruni photos.

Actually, I'm comfortable with my choice.

6 This could still turn into a solid Republican victory once the absentee millitary votes are in. It would be sweet to had Obama a defeat in a district that he campaigned in.

7 4 Sweet.  Military absentee votes will hold the line.



Don't count your chickens. 

The Corner claims that most of the counties in NY waited way too long to send out absentee ballots to the military and then required a postmark of March 30 (1 day before the election) in order for the votes to count.

8 Why is it that initial vote counting mistakes are always in favor of the Donks? 

Posted by: dan-O at April 02, 2009 04:18 PM (teb/C)

9 @ dan-O no. 8: actually, donks often "correct" the tally in their favor during the re-canvassing.  That's when a lot of phony votes get in.

Just look at the phony votes in MN that were added by double-counting ballots that were hard to read.  This is what was supposed to happen:

step 1: make an exact copy of the ballots that are hard to read.  Step 2: mark the originals and duplicates as such so nobody gets confused later which is which: Step 3: count the duplicates, do not count the originals.

Here is what actually happened:

step 1: duplicate hard-to-read ballots in an area that supports Franken.  Step 2: don't mark any ballot as a duplicate or as an original.  Step 3: count both duplicates and the originals.

Dems always cheat as much as they possibly can.  Tedisco needs his people to be on red alert for this kind of thing.

10 Holy Shit!  I just got a Brian Moran (D running for VA Gov) campaign google ad in the top right on this page.  I clicked it.  Does that click make money flow from the Moran campaign to Ace?

11 So they have the weekend to work out how many ballots they need to find to make the final numbers work out, right?

Posted by: Larry Sheldon at April 02, 2009 04:36 PM (OmeRL)

12 Which would be easier, convincing the GOP PTB that "not as bad as the Dem." is not good enough, or replacing the PTB with some that understand that if they want people to come out and vote, they are going to have to put up people we can vote for with out holding our noses?

Or is the problem that we no longer believe that voting makes any difference, in which case we really are doomed.

13 Wouldn't that be funny if ACORN screwed up and Al Franken won in NY-20?

17 New York is not Minnesota.  There are no ballots to find in New York other than absentees, of which there is an absolute limit based on the number of absentees requested, and provisional ballots, which may or may not be counted. 

New York usually votes on decades-old lever machines.  There are no hanging chads or half-filled circles to interpret.  The machines registered a vote or didn't.  The only fight will be over the admissibility of absentee and any provisional paper ballots.

One side is willing to do whatever it takes to win, and if the game goes into overtime, the rules are stacked.

24 That just shows that the wigs picking so-called “centrist” candidates is still killing the party. It appears that Republicans are just no longer going to vote for liberal RINOs.

PRECISELY.

I mean ... we "could" be logical about this - and do what the liberals are telling us to do - and move to the left - which is where they say the MAJORITY of America is.

And we JUST KNOW that liberals only say that for OUR GOOD.  They're trying to help us out because they ... they just really dislike being in power and getting to do everything they want to do.  They want some real competition from us because they are great Americans and America was built on competition.  On top of that - they're just really swell guys who want to help us the fuck out.

That's the David Frum message.

Folks, I'm 47 years old.  I was alive and politically active in 1980 when Ronald Reagan KILLED Jimmy Carter.  I actually was an activist for John Anderson - because Jimmy Carter wasn't liberal enough for me.  Oh - the follies of youth.

But ... the thing is see - Ronaldus Magnus won that race in a landslide in spite of the fact that the MSM had been calling him a "reactionary war monger who would cause a nuclear war with the Soviet Union".

Sweet Jesus people - we've been here before - this is NOTHING new.  Reagan points the way.  When Reagan ran for office - the term "Liberal" wasn't even an insult yet.  We don't have to "modify" or "update" Conservatism.  We just have to BE FOR, AND LIVE BY ... CONSERVATIVE PRINCIPLES.

Believe me - people are GOING to get a bad taste in their mouths from Obama.  It's already happening.  Most American's realize already that if we JUST had a two party system in this country right now - their grandchildren wouldn't be OUT TENS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS.  Americans are scared of how far this President might go unchecked (even if he still has high polls - they can still like the guy and wish there was more adult supervision).

GIVE AMERICANS A REAL CHOICE AND THEY WILL CHOOSE IT!

GIVE AMERICANS A "FAKE" VERSION OF COKE - AND THEY WILL CONTINUE TO BUY COKE.

Really - it's THAT simple.

59 Certainly watches are Replica Watches used to help people record rolex Watches time, but rolex watches nowadays its functions have enlarged. Replica watches are now tag heuer Watches not only objects that tag heuer watches can tell you what time it is, they are also a status symbol. You should not feel strange when you find someone wearing a watch on his wrist, but use the cell phone to tell time. In that situation, the watch is just showing its luxurious function cartier watches. It is normal and cartier watches perhaps also happens to you. .If asked that among the watches of various brands, which one can suit your taste? There is no doubt that most people will choose Rolex. Whichever social class you are in, it is naturally Rolex was known breitling Watches and cherished breitling watches for a long time. However, the elements do not usually enter the market alone, always come with the price tag up to the hand. For this reason, many people, especially men, their dreams of luxury Rolex watches are buried in omega Watches his heart omega watches. What should I do? Rolex watches are simply stunning worn by the rich and famous, right? No, this world is not the world's richest men, is the world of each. All are equal before the search of luxury and be men's watches respected. Within men's watches, the law, when consumers are in the market, women's watches they should women's watches receive the same treatment. This is the real reason why replica Rolex watches are ladies watches ladies watches more welcome than Rolex. Because in this world are not difficult to understand that the rich are much less than people with low income, you agree with me? You are forced to nod and say with certainty that is the reality. These low-income people do not have enough money to save every month. They can not afford such luxury Rolex watches

History The Oyster case was first released in 1926. The objective was to protect the workings of the watch from dust and moisture. Early watches were far from waterproof. The Oyster tag heuer Watchescase was an tag heuer watches innovative design to eliminate these problems. It had a new double locking crown that screwed into place. It has been compared to the hatch on a submarine. Like a submarine, the Oyster case was waterproof. In 1927 Mercedes Gleitze swam the English breitling Watches Channel breitling watches . Before she set off she was presented with a Rolex Oyster. When she arrived, the watch was still working perfectly. The resulting publicity gave the new case a massive boost. Why is it called Oyster?
