FL-13, Will A Single House Member Stand Up For 18,000 Voters? Sun 12/24/2006 Update

Sun Dec 24, 2006 at 10:58:05 AM PDT

This diary is part of a continuing series of diaries to focus attention on the FL-13 missing votes.

Will a single house member stand up for 18,000 voters whose vote were not counted in FL-13? Remember when Barbabra Boxer stood up for John Kerry's election in 2004? It only takes one member to object, and a vote will be required of the entire house.

It only takes one member, however, to object to Buchanan being sworn with the rest of the House. The chamber would have to vote to seat him if that happens. Story Link - Sarasota Herald Tribune

much much more after the fold

It appears the Sarsota Election suprevisor knew the vote would be wrong days before the election. 11/3 (3 days before Election Day) Email by Sarasota Election Supervisor Admitting Problem
