Wulsin: It ain't over.

The Wulsin campaign just issued this release:

COUNT ALL THE VOTES
Wulsin demands that boards of elections follow procedure and counting all the votes

Cincinnati, OH – "This election is by no means over," said Victoria Wulsin today about her race for Congress against Jean Schmidt. "Thousands of absentee and provisional ballots have yet to be counted. Until all the votes are counted, this race continues."

Wulsin sent a letter to all 7 boards of election today requesting information on the number of provisional ballots cast and the number of absentee ballots still left to be counted.

"The central principle of our democracy is that the people of this country choose our own government," the letter said. "The integrity of that democracy therefore requires that each vote be counted."

Those absentee votes include military families and civilians living abroad. Because that information is not yet available district-wide, it is premature to declare either candidate victorious.

In the coming days, the boards of elections will verify the provisional ballots and citizens will have the opportunity to check whether their provisional ballot will be counted. Later, those qualified ballots will be tallied and included in the final race figures.

In the coming days, the Wulsin campaign will examine the possibility of a recount.
