Virginia Counts Some More Votes from November 2008

On November 23, the Virginia State Board of Elections re-certified the November 2008 election results, to take account of another 105 votes that were counted this month. These ballots had not been counted last year because they arrived in the postal mail to late to be counted. They were foreign absentee votes. Recently a U.S. District Court ruled that these ballots should be counted, on the grounds that it wasn’t the voter’s fault that they arrived late, because elections officials had mailed them out to the voter too late.

The new votes were cast as follows: Barack Obama 49 votes, John McCain 53 votes, Bob Barr 1 vote, miscellaneous write-ins 2 votes, none for the other ballot-listed candidates, who were Ralph Nader, Chuck Baldwin, and Cynthia McKinney. The new presidential vote totals aren’t up on the Virginia State Board of Elections webpage yet, but they should be soon.

  1. How about counting for 4 years or more ???

    NEVER any final-final-final results — due to armies of MORON bureaucrats in rotten governments ???

  2. My son, Demo Rep, does the same thing at job interviews. That’s why he’s 42 and still lives in my basement.
