District 4- questionable result

[Keystone Phil]

Harry, if you want to take me to court for declaring WMS the winner,  I don't mind, really!

I would hope that there is no biased displayed in this post.

As Fritz appears to be under the weather, occupied, or otherwise unable to be here to post this topic, I'll do it in his stead.  Given that I'm just copying and pasting what he probably would say anyway, I'm assuming he won't mind.

*Note: Texasgurl's words were "i will finish my term but i will not activly run for re-election."  I have no clue if this means that she's not running for re-election or if she's just not actively running for re-election.  Because of this ambiguity, I've left her on the ballot.

This the ballot look very closely at the part in bold, 24 pt letters. Now read.

Yeah and don't say that it doesn't matter because Fritz wasn't there. If you want to make that your case, I guess we can have the whole election over again.

I still stand by my assertion. Votes that are edited won't be counted. I agree with that. But if the post is edited but not the vote, I'm not sure that counts as editing your vote. Democratic Hawk didn't change who he voted for, hence he didn't change his vote.

We don't know if he edited the vote. Do we have proof that he didn't edit the vote? Screenshots, anything. if so email it to evryone so we can look at it. The info we have is the part of DemoHawk's post that says "edited by DemocraticHawk". Other than that there is no proof.

Also, I'm sure there have been edited posts in the past that have been thrown away when the poster might not have edited the vote. Why should we just start worrying about whether or not the actual vote was edited in this election? Why wasn't this brought up before when posts were edited?

[Keystone Phil]

Wait, wait...is this a joke? I really want to know if this was a planned joke. Democratic Hawk DELETED HIS VOTE and now wants to sue for his voting rights? I have a tough time taking this seriously at this point.
