Ten Votes

September 3rd, 2008 by Steven Gardner

If 10 people in the 35th District who voted for Marco Brown had instead voted for Brad Gehring, the race would have qualified for an automatic recount. That’s six-one-hundredths of 1 percent of those who voted Republican.

If 100 people in the 35th District who voted for Marco Brown had instead voted for Brad Gehring, the candidates would be separated by one vote.

    Of course, if it barely got within the automatic recount trigger… I’m not sure Gehring would have a chance in the recount.

  2. NavyRogue Says:

    It is too bad. Brad was the better candidate. But time to rally around Marco now.

  3. Mike Says:

    …and for those who don’t think their single vote makes a difference!

  4. James M. Olsen Says:

    Issues of votes means thinking about the Auditor position. See YouTube: http://www.YouTube.com elect John Clark Kitsap Auditor.

    Mr. John Clark is an impressive candidate and he deserves a close examination and a vote for him.

    If ifs and buts were candies and nuts, we’d all have a really nice Christmas. Reality means a whole lot more than the fantasy of “what if?”.

  6. Steven Gardner Says:

    Thanks for not using the dirty version of that response, Joe.
