:eyes:

3. Hey, Cheney was here on Halloween and is SUPPOSEDLY in ND today

Damn, I KNEW he would not give up power!

I am about to stroke out here. Stealing the Senate in MY BACK YARD!

No, it's personal now.

6. Tester People Expect to Keep lead in MT

They said they will keep the lead with the Yellowstone votes.

[nadinbrzezinski]

2. It will get longer

4. Right before they pulled the Yellowstone votes, the numbers swung HUGELY in Burns'

favor.

Tester had picked up only 9,989 votes, but Burns picked up 13,185 votes!!! That doesn't include the Yellowstone change, so we'll have to see...

5. Bullshit. This is the one they are going to go all out to steal.

These evil thugs don't even care about how they come across - as liars, as thieves, as criminals. They are simply trying to prevent Democratic control of the Senate, since it looks as though they will have zero success against Webb in VA.

I want to know what they are "counting?" Votes recorded on a memory card or actual pieces of paper? We have to contest this one if the outcome shows a winner other than Tester. I hope the lawyers are strategizing and are familiar with MT election law.

7. In yellowstone we vote on paper with pencil - bubble in - I LIKE IT!

They are rescannning the bubble sheets

[Tatiana]

9. That's reassuring.

Thanks for the info. I hope the ballots are secure and don't get "disappeared."

[casus belli]

16. Agreed, thanks for the insight on voting method.

That does actually make me feel a bit better about it.

[Rainscents]

10. Your great governor refuse the diebold machines there!

I really think, counting machines failed and the out come will be the same when vote is recounted... Tester!

[AntiFascist]

11. Remember, the Liebold scanner machines...

are still hackable via their memory cards.

[sandnsea]

17. So they request a hand recount

These are not counties with a million people and tons of precincts. If things don't add up, they can get to the bottom of it pretty quickly. The people operating the machines know that too.

[RummyTheDummy]

13. Yeah, good luck with that

With a powerful and wildly Demo. Gov. Me thinks the wheels are in motion to level the playing field.

[nadinbrzezinski]

8. I'm doing captures on Word

and the lead is widening... not closing... though the vote in the three counties in question (reset to zero) are still at 0

[tsuki]

12. How do you recount machines. There's one machine,

there's two machines, there's that itty-bitty third machine right over there...

Paper ballots forever.

[althecat]

14. All eyes on Yellowstone....

[MGD]

15. Do not make me come over there Montana!

[Eurobabe]

18. Jaybus Montana!! You're KILLING US!! j/k

I don't know what to do with myself...waiting, waiting.
