"The head of the state Democratic Party says that recount results from King County give Democrat Christine Gregoire an eight-vote victory in the closest governor's race in Washington state history."

Naturally Republicans are raising hell.

Good to know my $50 from Massachusetts did some good!

2. Repubs Finally Claim Fraud

Here's the ABC News feed:

And yes, it was ironic to finally see Repubs joining the chorus of people crying "fraud" (although in this situation they are blaming the Dems):

...About 350 people gathered Tuesday to show support for Rossi in front of the Supreme Court, at a rally sponsored by a conservative talk-radio station.

The crowd chanted "No more fraud!" They held signs saying "Welcome to Ukraine" and wore orange, a tribute to the signature color of demonstrators in Ukraine who protested a fraud-marred election there.

4. Excellent!

But waiting for the noise the Rossi crew will be making later on today...

5. Well, the election fraud issue is now suddenly newsworthy!

Not to imply the MSNBC and ABC are opportunistic lying-assed media corporations ... NOOOOOOOOO!!!

After the next president is locked in, I'm sure they'll be giving much more bandwidth to this issue. They need to get the momentum going for HAVA II and selling more unauditable voting machines.
