District 22 recount results are in
Submitted by Christian Grantham on August 8, 2008 - 11:13am.
Mary Mancini points out what I guess wasn't so obvious to Tim Barnes. If it's not clear enough, NIT has the official recount results for the TN Senate District 22 race between Tim Barnes and Rosalind Kurita: Barnes lost by 19 votes.
Due to the closeness of the race, it is completely understandable that you would want a recount. It’s the smart - and right - thing to do.
But there is one thing you should know - a recount is an absolute waste of time.
You see, the machines used in both Montgomery and Houston counties are electronic. So, to get vote totals for each machines, an election official merely presses a button. A “recount” for these machines means pressing the same button and getting the same totals. There will be no difference at all in the numbers you get after the recount.
