Where are the presidential and GOP complaints about this vote still being counted?

Rep. Mia Love cut into the lead held by Salt Lake County Mayor Ben McAdams on Friday as Utah County and Salt Lake County updated vote totals in the state’s highly watched 4th Congressional District race.

McAdams lead went from 7,128 to 5,286 after Utah’s two most populous counties updated vote totals, the first update for Utah County since Election Day.

Thousands of ballots still remain uncounted throughout the state. And the new vote totals on Friday showed McAdams had actually improved his performance in Utah County, a conservative stronghold. That could spell trouble for the Love campaign.

“We have no further statement at this time,” Sasha Clark, Love’s campaign manager, said Friday.

The new tally results in McAdams' lead margin dipping from 3.54 percentage points to 2.5 percentage points.

Two reasons there's no rage tweet about this one: 1) The vote change is going in the Republican's favor, cutting into the Democrat's lead;  2) His Lardship already pissed on Mia Love for not showing him the proper adulation; and 3) she's black - the only black female Republican in Congress. 

And then there were none.
