Recount
I fully expected a recount. 7 votes difference leaves a lot of room for error.
The machine I voted on was computerized. I wonder if all machines in Muncie are that way?
Good question.
Now, testing the new theory on Journalism (that, as a whole, the audience knows more than the 'journalist'), anyone know the answer?
I wish more local politicians posted here. They will eventually, I believe.
Anyway...
