Wrong. The entire Palm Beach County canvassing board is made up of democrats- one partisan, one deer in the headlights, and one non-partisan, independent thinker.

"I would say that Section 166 protest remedies are already ongoing. There has been no attempts to delay these counts that I see other than the Republican Member of the Canvassing Board in Palm Beach wanting to delay the vote early Saturday morning until Monday until after he had gotten advice from the Office of the Secretary of State - Katherine Harris. (Just what do you think her advice would have been?)"

This is proof that you are being influenced by the media. Carol Roberts (the partisan), was the one that suggested meeting again on Monday (today) at 10 a.m.; not your "Republican" democrat county judge.

nytimes.com
"The board — made up of a county commissioner, a county judge and the elections supervisor, all Democrats — presided over a confusing process in which the rules for what constituted a vote shifted in the middle of the day. Democrats complained about the rule change, saying that if the rules had remained the same, Mr. Gore would have added even more votes."

Perhaps you ought to work on the facts before screaming "partisan".

Funny that the one member of the committee that disagreed with the other two is a colleague of the judge that will hear the case tomorrow... Perhaps, as a judge, he understands Florida law and didn't want to look like an idiot, unlike Ms. Roberts who seems to be good at it.
