    I DEMAND a Re-Count

    I DEMAND a Re-Count. No way I could have lost. Look at the people who wanted to vote for me, they are stupid, and can't figure out how to vote for me. I know it was everyones intention to vote for me. It doesn't matter if they didn't cast a legal vote, the only thing is the will of the...
