TOMORROW — FULL RECOUNT IN WEST/MURPHY CONGRESSIONAL RACE
Hello all,
This afternoon, a St. Lucie County judge deemed himself unable to rule on Congressman Allen West’s request for a full recount. The judge essentially punted the decision back to the St. Lucie County Supervisory Canvassing Board. Things looked pretty dismal when the board met this evening at 4pm and no decision was being communicated.
Then, some 5 hours later in a strange twist, honor and integrity prevailed . . .but only after someone found a box of several hundred uncounted ballots in a local high school gymnasium. This resulted in a 2 to 1 vote by the Canvassing Board to recount the rest of the early voting and absentee ballots in the West/Murphy congressional race.
This is like a bizarre story line in a B-rated novel . . . but that is what we can expect from today’s progressives who do not know how to spell honor and integrity!
LET’S RALLY TOMORROW! A FULL COURT PRESS! ALL HANDS ON DECK FOR THE RECOUNT! BE THERE FOR AN HISTORICAL MOMENT IN TIME!

2nd Thursday Update on West/Murphy Race — Two Decisions Tomorrow
Two pivotal decision and two rallies tomorrow!
Hello all,
Yet again, things are changing by the hour in St. Lucie County. As I said in my last post, a St. Lucie County circuit judge has scheduled a two-hour hearing for Friday on Republican U.S. Rep. Allen West’s request for a recount of all 37,379 ballots cast during early voting in St. Lucie County.
Then, a few hours later, the Supervisor of Elections for St. Lucie County, Gertrude Walker, will announce her decision with regard to recounting the ballots in this race.
As a result, here is our rally schedule for Friday, November 16th:
11 am Rally at the St. Lucie County Courthouse will begin.
1 pm The St. Lucie County Circuit Court judge will pass down his decision on the recount.
3 pm Rally at the St. Lucie County Supervisor of Elections Office will begin.
4 pm Gertrude Walker will announce her decision on the recount.
If one of these decisions results in a recount, we do not know when that recount will begin. It is very important that we have as many people as possible at both of these rallies. This will show our overwhelming support for voting integrity in St. Lucie County and Congressional District 18!
PLEASE COME TOMORROW and BRING YOUR FRIENDS! Be a part of history! If not us, who is going to do this?

==========
Hello all,
I apologize for getting this email out so late this afternoon. . . but once again things are changing by the hour in St. Lucie County. The auditors arrived early this morning and the on again/off again recount for the local mayoral race was started. From our inside observers, there were several idiosyncrasies but there is yet no formal report from the auditors. As soon as I hear something, I will post it.
Again, we thank all who came to Ft. Pierce for the rally this morning. Once again, we had a show of strength and the news coverage appears to be favorable. I am in Washington DC right now so do not have first hand knowledge. If you have an anecdote you’d like to share please reply to this email and I will share it.
Tomorrow, Thursday, we are looking for an even bigger crowd! Please join our hearty team as we let our state know that we want voting integrity — we want every vote to be counted accurately!

Update: Rally Tomorrow — State Auditors are Coming to St. Lucie County
As I had written in my previous blogs, Sunday, the St. Lucie Supervisor of Elections, Gertrude Walker, did not follow through on her agreement to recount all early ballots to address concerns stemming from their acknowledgement of technical errors. Just in the small number of ballots counted, Congressman Allen West was show to have several hundred more votes than the original count reflected!
The scheduled recount for the local mayoral election at 7am tomorrow morning has been postponed. Instead, the State Elections Department is sending auditors to assess the ballot processing procedures in St. Lucie County.
As we did this morning, we would like to show our discontent with her refusal to count more of the votes in the Allen West/Patrick Murphy race.
We MUST stand up for voting integrity and demand a full recount! Here is the date, time, and location:
Rally for Voter Integrity tomorrow morning at 7am!

THE 2012 ELECTION CHALLENGES
Now that the 2012 election is history, it is instructive for Tea Party people to consider what is next.
While most of the politicians who were elected were opposed to the Tea Party principles of Limited Government, Fiscal Responsibility, and Free Markets, this is not a time for the Tea Party to despair. After an appropriate period of licking our wounds and mourning a lost opportunity, we need to pick ourselves up and proceed to the next challenge.
The losing Presidential candidate did not have as one of his goals the restoration of the Constitutional Republic given to us by our Founding Fathers. Few people have that goal. One of our challenges is to increase the number that do so we get more attention from the decision makers.
We need to redouble our efforts to meet the challenges to give our children and grandchildren the country the 18th century colonists envisioned.
Some of the challenges are imbedded in the national culture and will require a long term effort to overcome.
Many citizens were deprived of the opportunity to understand the government our Founding Fathers gave us. They do not distinguish between a democracy and a republic. They do not appreciate many of the details of the Constitution. We will need an educational program to improve the citizens’ understanding of their government. We need to examine what is being taught in our schools, the adequacy of the textbooks, and the training of the teachers.
Other challenges are more short-term and will also require significant effort.
Conservative leaders who were elected this year need our support. We need to do all we can to help them in their efforts to help achieve Tea Party principles.
Less conservative leaders who were elected need to hear from us as they undertake their responsibilities and make decisions that will impact the type of government we have.
Legislation to move us closer to our objectives will need to be drafted and pursued.
And for the very short term, we need to be vigilant to protect against the damage a lame duck government might foist upon us.
And the next election in two years will be here too quickly. We need to find conservatives who are willing to serve and help them get elected. The earlier this process is started, the higher the probability of success.
With the most aggressive big-government, tax-and-spend, anti-capitalist President in the last half-century now reelected, we surely cannot rest.
The significant challenges standing in the way of the Tea Party reaching its goals must not deter us.
Share Your Thoughts: What is wrong with our election process in Florida?
This has been one of the hardest 36 hours that I’ve experienced in quite a while. I am sure that it is true for you as well. For instance, I woke up in the middle of the night thinking “Supreme Court Judges!”
This is a scary time. We have one lone potential bright spot and that is the ballot counting for Allen West! The support for monitoring ballot processes has been overwhelming! We thank each and every one of you for your care, your prayers, and your effort. We should know the outcome by Friday evening.
