Connecticut:

Democrat Sarah Keitt Claims Victory In 134th House District Race

The race between Keitt and Republican Meghan McCloat came down to a recount, which McCloat is contesting with an elections complaint.

Alfred Branch  |  Nov 16, 2022  |  5:56 pm ET


FAIRFIELD, CT — Democrat Sarah Keitt claimed victory Wednesday in the state's 134th House District race, defeating Republican challenger Meghan McCloat by less than a dozen votes following a recount.

According to unofficial numbers from the Secretary of State's office, Keitt garnered 5,143 votes, while McCloat received 5,133. The district represents parts of Fairfield and Trumbull.

In Fairfield, Keitt unofficially received 3,697 votes, compared to McCloat's 3,657. The unofficial Trumbull tally was 1,446 for Keitt, and 1,476 for McCloat.

Keitt carried Fairfield, the hometown of both candidates, by 40 votes, while McCloat had a 30-vote edge in Trumbull, which ultimately was not enough for the victory.

"The voters have spoken," Keitt said in a statement. "After all of the ballots were carefully tallied and meticulously re-counted, I am thrilled to announce that I have won the race for State Representative in Connecticut’s 134th House district by 10 votes. This result demonstrates the truth of the statement, 'EVERY vote matters.'"

For her part, McCloat said she has drafted a complaint with the State Elections Enforcement Commission against Fairfield Democratic Registrar Matthew Waggner, who McCloat accused of violating "multiple Connecticut State Election Laws that constitute Prohibited Acts according to Chapter 151 of the Connecticut General Statutes."

McCloat did not provide a copy of the draft complaint to Patch, but said that the "evidentiary attachments" would be made public in the event of an SEEC investigation.

"Alleged violations include unnecessary printing of photocopied ballots, improper chain of custody of official ballots, false statements on certificates and returns, improper voter count without an official moderator present, and tampering with ballots among other violations," McCloat said in a statement. "These violations, if corroborated, carry criminal penalties and should be the subject of investigation by the State Elections Enforcement Commission."

The election day count had Keitt trailing by 113 votes.  Keitt called McCloat to concede the election.  But eight days later, the cities of Trumbull and Fairfield announced that they had discovered batches of ballots that had not been counted.  These new ballots put Keitt ahead.

Was Meghan McCloat part of the 218 number?

No, it is a State House race.

Current count according to CNN:

GOP - 219
Party of satan - 212

Four seats undecided.  Three in California (Republican leads all three).  One in Alaska (Dem leads, but will go to second and 3rd choice).

Possible GOP could win all four, but its also possible the Dems could win all four.

Let's pretend 2 go to the GOP and 2 go to the Democrats, what would that get us total this cycle? Almost double digits? That is sort of a mini-wave right?

Shouldn't Lauren Boebert's win increase the count to 219....or is she included in the 218. Fox or the Hill still has the count at 218

The last ballot drop in the Boebert race was at 2 pm today (noon MST).  Another 145 ballots.  Boebert got 74 of those (51%).

Current tally shows Boebert ahead by 554.  They said they Friday was the deadline for mail-in overseas ballots.  So this should be final.  They say in Colorado that no one overcomes a 500-vote deficit after recounts.

Alaska election results: Murkowski takes lead in tight ranked-choice general election
Murkowski campaign trolls rival Kelly Tshibaka after overtaking her by fewer than 2,000 votes

By Chris Pandolfo | Fox News

Alaska Republican Sen. Lisa Murkowski has taken the lead over Republican challenger Kelly Tshibaka in the ranked-choice Senate contest that won't be resolved until at least next week. 

As of Saturday morning, Murkowski leads Tshibaka by fewer than 2,000 first-choice votes, with no candidate in the race claiming an outright majority that would end the election. Murkowski has 112,519 votes, 43.3% of the total vote share, and Tshibaka has 110,861 votes, 42.7%. 

The deadline to receive absentee ballots was Friday, Nov. 18, and the tabulation of second-choice votes is scheduled to begin on Wednesday, Nov. 23.

Under Alaska's ranked-choice voting system, voters must list the four candidates who advanced from a jungle primary in order of who they prefer to win. If no candidate receives a majority of first-choice votes on Election Day, the counting proceeds to a second round where the candidate with the fewest votes is eliminated. People who voted for that candidate have their votes redistributed to their second-choice. The counting continues until there are two candidates remaining and whoever has the greatest number of votes wins.

Just off the top of my head.

Perhaps a large, impressive looking trophy with the inscription,

“When you are dead, you don't know that you are dead.
It is difficult only for the others.

It is the same when you are stupid."

It's a brilliant voting system if you're Lisa Murkowski.  And even with a voting system solidly rigged in her favor, Mitch McConnell still spent millions of dollars here trashing her Republican opponent (in violation of GOP Party rules).

Democrats received 10 million LESS votes in 2022 than they did in 2018. Republicans received 3 million MORE—a 13 million vote swing.

Don’t let anyone tell you Republicans didn’t turn out, they did. It was early mail and harvesting in about 20 key districts. We will fix this.

Republican David Valadao Reelected Despite Voting to Impeach Trump

Joel B. Pollak 22 Nov 2022

Rep. David Valadao (R-CA) was narrowly reelected Monday, defending his seat despite voting to impeach former President Donald Trump last year, only the second Republican of ten who did so to return to Congress.

Well, I was interested in what Ms. Lake had to say, but I guess Mr Trump's has some level of exclusivity to look at his site. No big loss.

Kari ought to find another way to reach people.
