Imagine how bad November will be.


Cons are traitors.

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — Kansas’ elections director says the state will go along with a request for a hand recount of votes from every county after last week’s decisive statewide vote affirming abortion rights, even though there was a 165,000-vote difference and a recount won’t change the result.

Melissa Leavitt, of Colby in far western Kansas, requested the recount and declined to comment to reporters Friday evening, citing work obligations. But she said on an online site raising funds for a recount that she had “seen data” about the election. Her post was not more specific, and there is no evidence of significant problems with the election.

Kansas law requires Leavitt to post a bond to cover the entire cost of the recount.

It will be interesting, and no doubt not surprising, to find out where the $$$ is coming from to do this.

Are we still able to find that out in Kansas or have they changed that law too?

I don't think they can raise the money to do it.

We have a 5 PM today deadline to provide $230,000 to have the recount. The Secretary of State's office said "By 5 p.m. Monday Leavitt must provide cash, check, cashiers check, or a credit card with sufficient funds to cover the $229,334." The guy wanting the recount said he'd put up his home, but the SecState said no.

They've only raised $30,000 online. Only nutjobs would put up money for this. Anyone knows this is a terrible waste of money.

No, the State is fine on this. There's a couple of crazy counties.

I mean, the Secretary of State, a Republican, has been quite strong on this, refusing to spend one dime of taxpayer money on this recount folly.
