I really hope they do not do a recount. It cost about 100 grand; and Hogan"s camp may be able to rig it to his favor. Remember what happened in 2000 down in dade county? I forsee the same thing being allowed ho happen here and now! Let's pray that it doesn't.

Hogan would probably cut more from education or entitlements to pay for the recount.
Some entitlements need to be cut, but right now Brown seems to be in a good position to win.

Brown has already won.

Id like to see the official link...TU has not made it official yet..has one of the local news teams made it official yet??

And to force a recount, Mr. Hogan would have to get judicial approval from the Circuit Court. I can't imagine what he'd allege in order to get such approval.

It's looking good for our side.

Sounds like the recount procedure is a hassle. I wonder if Hogan would do it....

Mr. Hogan has conceded the race to Mayor-Elect Alvin Brown. It's over.

We may finally have started to chip away at the good ol boy network. But our work is far from over and can be reversed if we're not careful.

Congrats to Alvin Brown!!!

Let us never forget about the bullet we barley dodged.
