The St. Lucie County Canvassing Board announced late Saturday it had set an “emergency meeting” to start at 7 a.m. Sunday at its headquarters, to “recount all ballots cast during early voting.” The number of early ballots is estimated by officials to be roughly 37,000.
West, who has refused to concede the race, is currently trailing Murphy by 2,442 votes, according to the latest results from Florida Division of Elections. On its website, the agency says West has garnered 164,448 votes to Murphy’s 166,890.
Well they can count the votes again and again and in the end, West will still lose.
probably you are right, but it is important when the race is that close to have a re-count. also make sure all the military and absentee votes are counted.
LOL...i knew that Uncle Tom was gonna get sent packing. The recount won't change a thing. Bye bye bigmouth. Have a nice life.
Why is it, any black man, that happens to be a Republican and/or a conservative is labeled as Uncle Tom? What happened to the all tolerent, all accepting and non biggoted Democrat party?

For many on the left, they require that one's politics/ideology must be aligned with skin tone. Hence if one is black & conservative, they are called "uncle tom," or "sellout" (stacey dash). What is this, if not racism? If your skin tone appears a certain way, then you must think a certain way.
Ususally lefties will not flat out admit to being racists, but their langauge gives it away, such as terms like "sell out" and uncle tom. I imagine when a little drunk many of them might admit it. Maybe James OKeefe could cook up some sting ops.
This is at odds with one of my fundamental beliefs about America, namely that part of our greatness comes from the fact that we have drawn people from all over the world and bonded them into one people. Even in the early 17th century one of the strengths of colonial America was that there were already Swedes, German, Dutch, English, French etc. co-existing.
Just one more reason why the left must be defeated, and even though we lost this battle, the war is not over.
West gets a free pass on this partial recount.
But he will have to pay for another if he still refuses to concede, as will Murphy. Lawyers won't work for free, and the vote counters must be paid.
I expect West will drag this out for as long as he can, just to deplete Murphy's funds. He will lose the recount and will lose the appeal, but he's a burn-all-the-bridges kind of guy, and doesn't care if his political aspirations are killed by his actions.
Murphy will get the money he needs, and when he's up for re-election, he will have a lot more going for him next time as a result of West's pig headedness. Somebody from the RNC needs to talk to the man and give hims a few hard facts of life.
Top Romney surrogates can essentially call Colin Powell a racists but random internet liberals can never make assesments about black conservatives. Intersting how that works. Anyway...The term Uncle Tom is defined as such:
"a black who is overeager to win the approval of whites (as by obsequious behavior or uncritical acceptance of white values and goals)"
The recount won't change a thing. Bye bye bigmouth. Have a nice life.
That's what I was thinking too!
