OT: one last post from me on this (i hope :-) [this is not specifically meant for you James] there is obviously an margin of error (no matter how large or small) in the vote counting process. why pretend that it's possible to be perfect about it? do the machine count, or another machine count if necessary... count all the absentee ballots too (which, btw, has not happened everywhere) sure the law provides for legal remedy. but imo that sets a bad example. what happens if I walk along the sidewalk in front of your house and slip and fall... can I sue you? you bet. but why would i? unless there's gross negligence or other perhaps aggravated circumstances (your dog was chasing me), it's just a fact of life. things happen. so for the vote counting, unless there's somekind of fraud or gross negligence, i do not understand all these recounts. perhaps they should recount the entire US as Jeff points out. more waste of time and taxpayers dollars. the nation needs to move on already. both candidates are essentially the same and, imo, neither is worthy of the office.
