The county board of canvassers ok'd the recount that Buchanan requested. Channel 12 reported at noon that when the ballot box for precinct 45 was opened, it was empty. They had no further details.

Recount didn't change the outcome. Ch 12 never mentioned the empty ballot box on the 5:00 news.

On the 6 o'clock news Kathy Shaffran reported the recount was completed, but that four precincts weren't counted. Makes no sense to me; I thought recounts were to correct errors. Anyone who can explain recount and election law?

(May be slightly misquoted)
Kathy:
"Now I do want to point out there were four precincts that were not recounted because when they tallied up the numbers the numbers didnt jive according to state law the election night numbers hold."

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In other words the numbers were wrong in 4 precincts!!!

In other words the election was screwed up so Clack might not have really come in second place.

How bad was the recount numbers off in the four precincts?

Do our machines have "programming issues"?

The sarvis center holds precincts 42,43 & 45. usually the highest voter turnout location in the city.

Four precincts could not be recounted because of other problems, including numbers assigned to seals and poll books not matching.

Kind of screwed up if you asked me. Were the machines switched around? What the heck happened. Did a "glitch" decide the election?
