Democracy is the worst form of government.........

Except for all the rest.  Breaking my vow to Uncle Kirk about not saying anything political, I just had to say "how insane is this?"

Someone wants to redo an election where the person elected has been in office for four months?  WTF?!?

yeah, you don't know the half of it. If you knew the whole story, you'd wonder if the candidate in you state really won and how screwed up is the election process in your state.

She won by 124 votes, after 3 recounts, in an election where a thousand or so felons voted and mail-in ballots were left lying around in warehouses. It's a screwed up situation. I think that if they were to hold another election that she'd still win, but at least we would KNOW that she got to greatest total of votes.

Wally,

Take a look at this site and then decide if you want to stand pat with your statement above.

Here is the url: http://www.soundpolitics.com/

At the very least, you'll know more than what you currently know.
