The Binary Circumstance

From the Seattle PI:

Republican Dino Rossi, contesting his narrow loss in the 2004 governor’s election, made public yesterday a list of 1,135 felons he said voted illegally and 45 dead people he said were credited with voting.

Those allegedly illegal votes are the core of a lawsuit Rossi and the state Republican Party have filed in Chelan County Superior Court in an attempt to invalidate Democratic Gov. Christine Gregoire’s 129-vote victory in a hand recount.

The number of felons the GOP said voted illegally without having their rights restored is slightly larger than the 1,108 the party said it had found by Feb. 22 when it filed court papers enumerating the number of illegal votes.

The Republicans didn’t disclose the names at that time but have said they are continuing to comb election records for more illegal votes.
