Will be interesting to see what happens next. By law the loser of the "drawing" has the right to request a second recount. The Democrat said yesterday that she wouldn't ask for a recount if she lost the drawing, however this was a political move trying to get the Republican to agree to the same thing such that if she won the drawing she could immediately be seated before the Assembly session starts thus keeping the Republicans from organizing house committees and speakership as a majority (repubs had said that they weren't going T seat her until after the session started).

Yep, if black and brown people ever figure out how to get a driver's license then the GOP is done.

She hasn't conceded and is reviewing her options. So much for her word.

So I put (the dead dog) on her doorstep!

Yep. Her word means nothing, so that tells you all you need to know about her character.
