I doubt that it occurred so it's really a non-issue. There are limitless unlikely hypotheticals that we could construct where a person's vote is misinterpreted by machine or by hand recount. It is far more likely that a dimpled chad is representative of a person’s valid attempt to vote and marks their intended choice. The goal of the counting process is to arrive at the most accurate result possible, not a perfect result. Good question.

What if your chad fell out on it's own during the machine count and was counted for Gore by the machine?
