Yeaaaaaa.....thank you FL for standing in ridiculously long lines and being determined. Voting is over for Allen West, too.

Counting in Palm Beach, St Lucie and Martin is done. That includes absentee and provisional ballots. The vote before these counts was West 157,872 to Murphy 160,328 with the advantage of 2456 going to Murphy.

After counting provisional and absentee ballots, the totals are now West 164,448 to Murphy's 166,890. Murphy still leads by 2442. It only changed by 14 votes.

See Ya West.

Pres. Obama would have won by even more votes if Gov. Scott and the Republican legislature hadn't reduced early voting from 14 days to 8 days. This voter supression has really energized the Democratic voters. One of the biggest losers of this election is our incompetent Gov. Rick Scott. Not only did he fail to create the jobs he promised, he failed to diversify our economy, he failed to properly fund education to make our students competitive in the world economy, and now he showed us that he can't even hold a proper election. This election took us four extra days to count while the rest of the country was laughing at us. Thousands of people waited hours in line to vote while our politicians drastically reduced the number of early voting days. Gov. Rick "Medicare Fraud" Scott is by far the worst governor that Florida has ever had.

Time to change your attitude along with your name. The election is over. Find another less confrontational way to get the attention you seem to so desperately need.

No, it is you and you are representative of what of John Stuart Mill talked about: "Although it is not true that all conservatives are stupid people, it is true that all stupid people are conservative."

Haters on both sides of the of the political landscape. You will notice that the haters on one side, are the quickest to complain about the haters on the other. A hater is a hater regardless of which side of the politcal system they stand.

Yep, it's you. And even if it isn't, what is there about the portrait of the Governor that you find untrue?

I agree totally with Bill.....he simply stated the facts. Facts have absolutely nothing to do with hate. It is only those that hate, see hate when it is not there.

Hey Victory, you sound like you could use a big hug. The people have spoken and spewing derogatory prejoritives towards others does nothing but make you appear to be somewhat of a bitter-ender, insignificantly irrelative and small. I love you you, man!

WOW and it only took HOW many days in FL to declare Obama the winner? If FL was the key state to decide the winner of the election, don't worry we'd have had a repeat of 2000, but seeing that Obama cleaned up and FL's vote was just icing on the electoral cake, it doesn't matter. Why does FL keep on being the laughing stock of the country when it comes to elections? Obama won time to move on....

The Democrats now have won the last two Presidential elections in Florida. If the Republicans couldn't win here in 2012, they will never win in 2016 or 2020. All of the current demographic trends are going against the Republican Party. Our next state election will be coming soon in 2014. I am sure that Gov. Scott will try to pull another election trick and try to supress the Democratic voters. He has already tried to reduce early voting and he packed the ballot with eleven confusing amendments. He even tried to remove Supreme Court judges who opposed his unconstitutional actions in Tallahassee. The #1 priority for Democrats needs to be to remove this ineffective and power hungry Governor from office. If we all go out and vote again in 2014, we will see to it that Gov. Scott will be joining Mitt Romney on a permanent vacation.

Isn't it wonderful that the Commander-In-Chief thinks so little of the armed forces that he doesn't want their votes to be included in an election.

Ok, and by that definition being it is the same issue we have had for decades. So didn't Reagan, Carter, Nixon, Clinton, W.H. Bush, H. Bush, etc... It is no different than any other election. The problem is we now we have so much ignorance in our partisanship that it is now an issue. The military men and women who I support had their votes in weeks ago, and they know that in order to be counted on time, it must be in early. They are counted, just the states have already closed their polls because of the small number of ballots (percentage-wise) that come in after the election day.

Some tribes in Sudan and Senegal http://www.coachoutletonlinexc.net/ Coach Factory Outlet have an average height of 6-foot-6, which also happens to be the size of the average NBA player. People in Nigeria, http://www.louisvuittonoutletam.net/ Louis Vuitton Purses Mali and Congo tend to be very big and physical. We need to build a strategy to go into these regions http://www.coachoutletstoreze.com/ Coach Factory Outlet and cultivate the talent through infrastructure and instruction.Not long ago, soccer in Africa was almost http://www.guccibeltsoutletds.net/ Gucci Belts the same way. It was untapped.Kids in Africa start kicking a ball when they are six or seven years old, if not younger. http://www.coachfactoryonlinefn.net/ Coach Factory Outlet It's like baseball, basketball and football in America. If you're talented, people will find you. That's what http://www.coachfactoryonlineae.com/ Coach Factory Outlet happened with soccer. The number of academies has grown rapidly, and people are really into it. As a http://www.coachoutletb1.com/ Coach Factory Online result, nearly every major soccer team has a lot of African players.Through my experience as a Nigerian player, http://www.coachoutlethcs.com/ Coach Outlet Online coach and now NBA executive, I believe basketball can follow a similar path. It starts with building facilities. We need http://www.coachoutletonlinegc.com/ Coach Outlet Online to start investing in outdoor courts and indoor gyms for kids to play.
