No provisionals have been tossed.  All checked so far are clear to be counted.

Jimmy, can you give us more info on this. The TU reports that half of the provisional ballots have been reviewed (about 320, then) and 125 provisional ballots have been tabulated (ie, verified and scanned).

The remaining 200 or so ballots remain unverified and have been set aside for the canvassing board to verify later, correct?



that is exactly correct.

Yes, Stephen is right.  I hear that there are some provisionals remaining that are going to be tossed.  They're apparently holding the ones that look most suspect back until closer to the end of the sorting/verifying/clearing process.  I guess to keep things moving smoothly otherwise.

So how does Corrine end up with a bunch of absentee balots??  shouldn't have those been inthe hads of the SOE office on the day of?

Just curious.  The way it sounded I envisioned her pulling them out of her purse or the trunk of her car.

I am trying to find a way to blame FBC for all of this.

I do think many republicans crossed the line to vote Brown.  I would like to see the final numbers of Democrat, Republican and Independent registered voters that voted.

There was a voting drive at the Gateway center.  It would be more accurate to say that Corrine witnessed them, she was on hand for the event.  They were then delivered by the proper channels.


I was wondering the same thing.

You know FBC has been up to no good.  Those Rascals!

Interesting that the police and fire unions, the developers, builders, realtors, FBCers, Tea Party all picked the losing candidate.  I sure hope Alvin is more free of the traditional special interests in this City than prior mayors.  I do think he will have his hands full with a "do nothing" City Council that does reflect those traditional interests.  As noted, maybe doing nothing is better than the wholesale "Rick Scott" style dismantling that Hogan may have implemented.
Hey!  Whatever happened to just plain ol' COMMON SENSE!!

Now everyone gets it, because of those republiclowns for brown.
Hogan as "served" the past several years as a councilman, state legislature rep., and two term tax collector. Hes a SOCIALIST in disguise!!!!
Congrats my republican friends, you caught the socialist just in time!

I am a Realtor and a Union member (American Federation of Musicians) who voted for Brown. We are the city we are because of the GOB network, where Hogan is a lifemember. We have to try something different. I am hopeful Brown will be a very good mayor, but I don't really know.
