It's Official: Gregoire Cheated

Oh Good.  Now We Find Out!
Christine Gregoire did lose her 2004 election for Governor of WA.
Are you paying attention, MN?

For those  unfamiliar with the 2004 WA gubernatorial election, Republican Dino Rossi won, but just as Al Franken did in MN this year, Democrats kept recounting and finding magical votes until, finally, Gregoire pulled ahead and a crooked judge validated it.  Similar  thing happened in my Maryland congressional district this year. But Stefan Sharkansky didn't let go of it, and now he's  $225,000 richer. 

Speaking of Ron Sims

King County has now settled my public records lawsuit for $225,000, one of the largest settlements for public records violations in state history.

The lawsuit stemmed from my December 2004 request for a list of all voters who voted in the November 2004 election. The county did not satisfy my request in full until January 2007.

The documents that they eventually provided to me revealed that county election officials unlawfully counted hundreds of ineligible ballots in the 2004 election: a multiple of Christine Gregoire's 133-vote "margin of victory" over Dino Rossi in the contested gubernatorial race. Documentation of these illegal votes was withheld from discovery in the election contest trial and not released to me until months after the trial. Consequently, the trial was conducted in ignorance of these potentially outcome-changing illegal votes.

Additional documents that were released last month in discovery for my case confirmed that county officials both knew more about the illegal vote counting than they had previously acknowledged, and also knowingly withheld responsive documents from me during 2005 and 2006.

The exceptionally large (for records cases) settlement, which King County offered before trial, clearly recognizes the county's culpability in this matter.

King County Executive Ron Sims, who is ultimately responsible for any records violations under his administration, appears to be on track for confirmation as Deputy Secretary of HUD. Sims is also well known for the Yousoufian public records scandal.


If this was the NCAA, WA would be put on probation and not allowed to participate in another election for four years, and Gregoire would lose her scholarship.  But it's not, so she she gets reelected.

Sometimes it just seems as if there is not enough drugs and booze to help a guy get through.
Good on Shark for putting on the good fight.
Of course my friends in Los Angeles should know that the crook in charge of that election is Dean Logan. I believe that he is now running the L.A. County Elections Dept.
Also, members of the King County (Seattle) Elections Dept went back to Minn. to assist in their recount.

I've already taken more than the recommended daily dosage of advil liqui-gels and I'm only half way through my reading list for today.

Looks like I'm going to have to start drinking early.

Hi xozaob,

So since she ran a second time and won does that mean all the legislation that she signed is valid or invalid?

Then grow some stones and kick the bitch to the curb. Of course, I thought this was the case from the very start - when the dhimmie count increases with each vote they "find" I grow more and more sure is is fraud. Is there an honest dhimmie left? Are they ALL crooks?
