he Allen West for Congress campaign reported it has filed a complaint in circuit court in Saint Lucie County, Florida, seeking a preliminary injunction ordering a recount of all votes cast in his contest during early voting and stopping the election results from being certified until such recount is completed.

The press release described the recount by the Saint Lucie County Canvassing Board on Sunday, November 11, 2012, noting that a ”limited, partial re-feed — not conducted pursuant to any statute — uncovered significant errors in the initial tabulation of votes. Nearly 1,000 votes disappeared from the count, and neither the Canvassing Board nor the Supervisor provided any explanation for this selective recount.” The West campaign also claims this recount was in violation of Florida’s Open Meeting Law, Florida’s Sunshine Law, and the Florida Constitution because it was conducted “behind closed doors and without providing the required notice to the public.”
