Just once I'd love to see a GOP candidate win a tight race through the discovery of a bag of uncounted ballots. Then again, Republicans don't seem to have any equivalents of ACORN, the SEIU, Mi Familia Vota, and the rest of the front groups that seem to conjure votes for Democrats out of thin air.

This is utter BS. I worked at polling stations as a party observer and (well, at least the ones I've worked at) the handling of the ballots was extraordinarily professional. Any ballots that start to "turn up" outside the process need to be disallowed regardless of the reason and an investigation with severe consequences to the party or parties responsible. Unless and until somebody actually goes to jail over this type of crap it will just continue.
4-Nov-2010, Bridgeport, CT: "Bag of uncounted ballots discovered in Bridgeport" More would be found if needed.
The Dems are complaining about "outside money" coming into the GOP campaigns. I would like a way to figure the value of MSNBC, and their pals, biased and misinformation broadcasts.
My thoughts exactly. How does it happen that the only party to "discover" ballots are democrats.
Impossible statistically.
Washington has these issues every single voting cycle since mid-1990s because of King County (where Seattle is located). The only way a Republican win here is if they have at least a 10% lead on election night or don't have to count ballots from King County. It is very sad.
