NM is an interesting case in that it is being overlooked due to the turmoil in Florida.
Interestingly, there are also some voter lawsuits taking place in Wisconsin and Iowa - though it's anybody's guess as to what the heck is going to happen there. I believe that the counts in those states will wind up standing and the lawsuits will be tossed out.
Harris' question is the right one. What evidence is there for the need for a hand count? Basically, the hand count completed in Volusia proved that nothing took place and the original count was essentially correct (a few extra votes for Gore). Similar counts in particular precincts of PB have proven the same.
The Dems have basically realized that the butterfly ballot question is meaningless and without merit. Both sides readily admit no fraud has taken place. Now it's just a question of counting....
I gotta believe that if it's an issue of hanging chad, the differential will swing mildly to Gore...but that as much chad is hanging for Bush.
