CRYBABY KIM ACCUSES HER OPPONENT OF CHEATING, OFFERS NO EVIDENCERepublican congressional candidate Young Kim, who just days ago was poised to be the first Korean-American woman in Congress as she led a closely contested California House race, is accusing her opponent of "harassing and intimidating vote counters as her lead has disappeared.
Kim is vying to replace retiring Rep. Ed Royce, R-Calif., in Californias 39th District, which includes part of the state's more Republican Orange County. Last week, she held about a 3-point lead over Democrat Gil Cisneros with about 150,000 votes counted.
But since then, that lead vanished, with Cisneros taking a 941-vote as of late Thursday.

Why do you say that when the republican went to court to stop counting in the blue county?

leading up to the election, I saw plenty by Young Kim and allies that attacked Gil Cisneros, but not a single positive ad that supporting Kim. Not one.
Now she's making wild accusations.
Hmm.

Seems that her vote counters know that something bad for her lurks there if all votes are counted.

better. She is complaining because she knows that she is toast.
