dabum3, The Republicans now claim to have "clear and convincing evidence of "vote sabotage" they just announced- Be interesting to see what it is...

The whole situation with disqualification of hundreds of military ballots stinks.... I'd like to hear a good explanation...Whoever wins should win "square and fair"- the true intent of the people of Florida should prevail, right?

Re postal unions: The whole ability of unionized government workers to contribute millions to political campaigns is personally not understandable and essentially unacceptable. All government workers should be subject to the Hatch Act limitations on political activities....

Anyway just from CNN:

Democratic and Republican lawyers filed their arguments in the state Supreme Court, Bush aides tried to call the credibility of the effort into question.

"In Palm Beach County and Broward County, the hand counting of the ballots that is ongoing is not only fundamentally flawed, it is becoming completely untrustworthy," said Montana Gov. Marc Racicot, a Bush campaign observer in Florida.

Racicot said the GOP had "clear and convincing evidence" that Democrats conducting the count had "sabotaged ballots." He said ballots were mishandled and dropped onto the floor by overworked, elderly vote counters. In one case, he said, vote counters found Bush ballots stacked among a pile of Gore ballots and refused to remove them. In another case, chad was taped over a ballot that had been marked for Bush, he said.
