Elmer - Re:"The 14th amendment specifically says no one will ne denied equal protection on the basis of race religon, color national origin etc etc. Without a violation of those standards, how does the 14th amendment apply?"

The 24th amendment claim is very weak, for the reasons you mentioned and others. It was not considered in the first Bush decision at the US Sup Ct

The first Bush decision asked the Florida Supremes questions on a) Article II, Section 1 of the US Constitution and b) Title 3, Section 5 of the US Code that contains the Dec 18 "safe harbor" provision for results certified 6 days before the counting date. That is the Dec 12 deadline.

It is very hard to fit the Florida Sup Ct decision into either of those boxes but The US Supremes will probably do so. But whatever they do, it is almost certain that they find for Bush.
