Actually, didn't he actually have reason to believe something fishy was going on? Wasn't there like a 4k vote swing in one location during the recount? Maybe someone from fl can chime in.

Two issues, 140% turnout in St. Lucie and many absentee ballots not yet counted. Who knows who won at this point. It's like Mia Love here in Utah, she lost by 2,000 votes and there are some 50,000 absentee ballots to count. The state now shows Matheson as a "provisional" winner.

Why would anyone be expected to concede when the vote count is fishy?

Even if it's 100%, when the rest of the country is at 30% this screams fraud.

Are you saying the rest of the country had a 30% turnout?

Roughly. 110 mil votes for Pres, 330 mil+ actual citizens, subtract the under 18, and we're there.

"Voter turnout" is not figured as a percentage of citizens. It is figured as a percentage of registered voters.

Election results 2012: Voter turnout lower than 2008 and 2004, report says

And you need to look at the link in my post #7.

It's about voter fraud, how about Philly?

In 59 Philadelphia voting divisions, Mitt Romney got zero votes

Not one single vote? What could possibly be suspicious about that?

Geez, they've only been voting for 200 years or so, you think they can figure out how to count?

Nevertheless, when one district has more than twice the
National avg, something ain't kosher in St. Lucie.

The only reason people voted against West is because he is black. That is 100000% fact. F*cking racists.
