Who’s to say they’re right this time?

Personally, I will not trust the gubernatorial election results until they can come up with the same vote totals two times in a row.

What reason is there to think that this time they somehow got it right?

We need to have another election. I’d like to see each voter photocopy their I.D. on a piece of paper, print Rossi’s or Gregoire’s name below it, and that serve as their ballot. Then drop it off, or mail it, as you would any absentee ballot. Anyone who could not follow such simple directions would not have their vote counted. Period!

Any takers?
