Democrats Are Never Satisfied
Not content with their gains in the midterm elections, the Dems have taken legal action in an effort to change the outcome of an election in their favor. Not surprisingly, the disputed results are from Florida’s 13th Congressional district. And by disputed I mean the republican candidate won fair-and-square and now two recounts later the dems are trying every trick in the judicial book to steal the seat. Sound familiar?
Ms. Jennings (D)–along with such liberal partisans as People for the American Way and the American Civil Liberties Union–has filed a lawsuit contesting the results based on “statistical and eyewitness evidence of significant machine malfunctions” in Sarasota’s iVotronic touch-screen system.
They want a court to declare Ms. Jennings the winner by–get this–using statistical models to extrapolate that she would have received most of the undervotes. Short of that, they’ll settle for nullifying the November results and holding a new election.
