roger I have been busy figuring out who is going to be our next president.....I think I got it figured out....there were 25 counties that used voting machines that used that stupid hole puncher device..........total democratic votes in those counties are 1852926 total republican votes are 1644629 ...or 208297 in the plus column for Gore....now in Palm Beach where they did do a one percent recount they found 19 additional votes for Gore and in that county the difference was 117000.....so if we extrapolate out gore would get about 1900 more votes if the number was 117000 but its 208297 so he should get about 3000 more votes from the recount across the state which at the end of the day will happen....how many votes to the plus will Bush get from Absentee...heard best guess on the news today is about 500 so if thats the case 300 he has now plus 500 or a total of 800 so it looks like not enough and Gore wins it by about 2200 votes.....I am sure this already is figured out in the Bush camp so expect big fights ahead to block the recount.
