Saw it on his Facebook page. (I'm at work now, can't link.)

And we are moved further into the wilderness.

It's certainly suspicious. Especially that elections supervisor who is so openly pro-Democrat, and who was instrumental in counting the votes that "defeated" West.

When enough people no longer have faith in the election process, the government becomes illegitimate. Watch out, progressives, because you may temporarily steal the reins of power, but you are also sowing the seeds of your own destruction. Payback is hell.

Proven fraud he let it go instead of fighting it.

How do you know he didn't do everything he could? The system was controlled by Democrats, and the Republican Party is against West, too, so he was fighting uphill on both fronts. Even the best field leader can't win against impossible odds.

Fighting this takes lost of money. How much did you donate to his campaign?

That's the problem, he and his lawyers couldn't prove it.

ETA:

"While there are certainly still inaccuracies in the results, and the actions of the St. Lucie County and Palm Beach County Supervisors of Elections rightly raise questions in my mind and for many voters, after much analysis and this past weekend's recount in St. Lucie County, our legal team does not believe there are enough over-counted, undercounted or fraudulent votes to change the outcome of the election.

Chicago style vote counting, now nation wide and run from the white house.

The noticeable lack of blood sucking lawyers sent by the RNC to help him speaks volumes.

If you missed it, the Republican Machine wanted West gone too.....hence the gerrymandering.

Lemonade from lemons, guys.

This will free him up to run for 2016.

If a sitting Senator/ former community organizer from IL can run for office and miss half his roll calls and still get elected to the Presidency, think of what the GOP can do with West in the next 4 years.

I'm not the biggest West fan but he's light years better than most of the Republican congresscritters. He was a trouble maker (I like that) and the establishment needed him out of the way because he got in the way of their wet noodle agenda.

The GOP does not like West. Hence why no real support for in this recount. Why do you think they want him as president?

He's a good man and an excellent representative. I refuse to label him a politician; he's better than that. Those whiny bastards that voted his opponent in deserve what they get, and I sincerely hope they get it.

Well, our POTUS did call on people to take revenge on their political opponents...

Well the grassroots effort needs to start for 2016! He needs to head to Iowa and New Hampshire now.

West will be on Hannity tonight.
Can't wait to hear what the Col. has to say...

He will get no help from the GOP in 2016. Not one dime.I hope Fox keeps him on the air and in front of people.

I suspect the DNC will come to regret this. He is not the type to go home and retire now, and with no legislative duties he is free to do nothing but be a thorn in their side.

I would love to see him leading an aggressive campaign aimed at winning minority voters to conservatism by showing them how the core values we have are beneficial to them and showing them the truth about what liberalism has done to destroy their communities. It will be an uphill battle, but it can work and will force the dems to use money and time defending what they take for granted.

Plenty of other states that would vote him in.

Would love to have West move to Georgia!

He's a third party candidate I could get behind without thinking twice. Perfect? No, far from it, but much better than anything else out there. He and Rand Paul need to start campaigning now.

Yep. I was bitching about this when 0 was elected th first time. We gave Chicago a powerhouse seat in the world circus.

That was clear on November 7th, when we saw that the moron majority now rule, and we're in for a fucked up ride, and if the progressive fucktards have their way, Obama may get at least one more SCOTUS pick, and it's possible the Dems could win back majority in the House, at that point, we're officially done as the Country we knew.

He needs to move to Oklahoma and run for Senator Coburns spot since he is retiring. He would win in Oklahoma by a landslide.

I hope not. Allen West is a phenomenal individual. I'd back him any day of the week. He's also a warrior. Warriors never give up.

If someone like Hilalry Clinton, born in Chicago and lived in Arkansas, can move to NY and get elected with no previous connection to the state, there is nothing that says West has to fade into the sunset.
He is a relatively young man still and I don't see that happening.

Republican establishment hates TEA party more than the Democrats, and will do everything it can to diminish candidates favored by them.

Plus the Gov isn't going to do anything that will conpromise his chances of a Repub nomination and eventual run for Prez.

Rick Scott isn't a Republican. He's the borderline oligarchical type.

The Republican Party of Florida is JUST as bad, if not WORSE, than the Democrats around here. They all wanted West gone - they succeeded.

He's up against the same Progressive machine.
