Mike, So what results do we get if there is a manual count of the entire state? By the way I agree completely that a manual count of the entire state is the fairest way to go (and always have,) but I have one reservation. No one has demonstrated (at least to my satisfaction) that a manual count of 6 million votes done by partisan geezers (both parties) and without standards is superior to two automated counts. There are several issues here. Missing votes. Human Bias. Human error vs. Machine error. It isn't clear to me, but the assumption is (at least at the NY TIMES, WASHINGTON POST, CNN, etc..) that a manual count is better. To me that's a much bigger debate than whether we should be counting or not. We should certainly be trying to get the best and fullest count possible. Wayne
