1. they are talking recount in Yellowstone County

:wtf:

3. I know I think it might be BS...

I just read the official statement. They said it was a software glitch, but it wasn't the kind of glitch which would be bad.

Absentee ballots + normal ballots were added together.

2. This was a four point difference...

with most of the votes counted at 10:39.

I think this story about glitches is a bunch of BS.

4. It was a 1273 vote margin!

It should place Tester ahead solidly, if it doesn't change the percentage much. I have a feeling someone goofed and no one has a clue in hell what they are doing.

Does anyone out in Montana know how the people of Yellowstone country voted?
