Not MY governor

Christine Gregoire was confirmed and sworn in as the governor of the state of Washington. I am upset about it. There are so many questions about the election. She thinks that is a clear victory for her, yet there were more votes cast in King County that there were voters. There were felons who voted. Dead people even voted in the election. She won by less than one-hundred and thirty votes. So there is reason not to believe the results. But the Democrat-held house decided not to step in.

There are court challenges by the Republicans and some citizens. I don't know what will come of those challenges. I am worried the court will not step in because she is now sworn in. She plans on making her way around the state to try to heal the discontent. If I were to go to one of her rallies I would hold a sign that says she is NOT my governor. We should know by the end of the month if there will be a new election or if it will remain how it is right now.

Other than that political issue I did my normal stuff at work. I tried to get my bugs solved and tried to make things less broken.
