Club Adventist




Welcome with open arms fellow believers who don’t see things the way you do.
And don’t jump all over them every time they do or say something you don’t agree with
– even when it seems that they are strong on opinions but weak in the faith department.
Remember, they have their own history to deal with. Treat them gently. Romans 14.1: The Message

Election day, November, 2006, Dacono, Colorado:

The race for Mayor was a very tight one. The incumbent was running against a challenger.

When the votes were all counted, the announcement was that the incumbent had won by ONE VOTE.

NOTE: Under Colorado law, there will be a recount. So, it is not over yet.

I like Mexican law better where they won't do a recount unless there was evidence of fraud.

So what if they do a recount and the other guy wins by one vote? Who is to say which count was right?
