IT APPEARS CHRISTINE GREGOIRE...

...HAS WON THE WASHINGTON state gubernatorial race by eight votes – votes newly discovered in King County of course. If this is true, King County's Democrats, who are the most matrifascist-dominated, anti-male, froth-at-the-mouth anti-gun Democrats in America, will totally control Washington state politics. With a Democratic majority in both houses of the legislature, the debt of Gregoire and the rest of the party to the King County apparatus will mean the end of Second Amendment rights in this state. Most likely we'll see quick passage of a statewide version of the New York City gun law: permits and registration for all firearms, mandatory Canadian or Washington D.C. type storage requirements, an end to concealed carry, no more gun shows, a ban on a wide variety of firearms including all semiautomatics, and of course the criminalization of even the most minor forms of mental illness – every one of these measures unsuccessfully attempted by King County Democrats during legislative sessions here in the past.

Again because of the nature of Gregoire's victory – because of the way it was engineered by the King County party apparatchiks and the debt Gregoire and the Democratic legislators will thus owe them – there is not even the consolation that the state's social service system will be preserved from the ravages of George Bush's policy of resurrecting the economics of the Herbert Hoover era. Here too the only real victors are the matrifascists who dominate the King County party. For now, instead of the even-handed social policy that might have emerged from a broader Democratic victory, only matrifascist malevolence will reign supreme. Which means a return to the viciously anti-male quota-mongering and official white-male-belittlement policies characteristic of state social services in the Booth Gardner and Mike Lowry eras: the policies that brought Washington its OK Boy’s Ranch “boys-will-be-boys” homosexual rape scandal, policies with overwhelmingly savage implications in this era of wounded veterans denied care by Bush Administration cutbacks and backlogs at the veterans Administration.

I have seen it all before – have seen it, and felt its wounding firsthand.

I can only pray that my estimate is wrong – or that the vote-count will change again.

Truly, it is the darkest night of the year.

I'm not a conspiricy theorist.. at least when it comes to State-wide or National votes, but it does strike me as odd that in the last National election it always seems that election irregularities seem to discount Democratic Party votes and favor, in one way or another, Republicans.

I've only paid cursory attention to the Ohio situation, because it would really take "slam-dunk" evidence that their were large-scale, centrally orchestrated shenanigans involved with the myriad voting anomolies to actually overturn the Presidential election.

However, the pattern does seem curious.. and many,non-centrally orchestrated ideologue minions, acting on their own initiative? An interesting possiblity.

Just a lot of little things. It just seems strange that all the little things always seemed to help Bush.

In Franklin County, a computing error initially awarded nearly 4,000 extra votes to President Bush. In Mahoning County, improperly calibrated touch screens resulted in an unknown number of votes incorrectly going to President Bush before the problem was caught.

In the Columbus area, the result was that suburban precincts that supported Mr. Bush tended to have more machines per registered voter than center-city precincts that supported Mr. Kerry - 4.6 machines per 1,000 voters in Mr. Bush's 50 strongest precincts, compared with 3.9 in Mr. Kerry's 50 best. Mr. McQuoid's precinct, a Kerry stronghold, lost one of the four machines it had in 2000, despite an increase in registration.

"Somebody came up with a very sophisticated plan for machine distribution which, either by accident or design, greatly enhanced the president," said Robert Fitrakis of Columbus, who is part of a group that has contested the election results in court.

Another area of contention is the large number of ballots - 96,000 by recent counts - that registered no vote for president. Known as "residual" or "lost" votes, they involve cases where no candidate for president appeared to have been selected or where multiple candidates were chosen, rendering the ballot invalid for that race.

The problem was pronounced in minority areas, typically Kerry strongholds. In Cleveland ZIP codes where at least 85 percent of the population is black, precinct results show that one in 31 ballots registered no vote for president, more than twice the rate of largely white ZIP codes, where one in 75 registered no vote for president.
