The FL SC should be the side of the angels this time. If Clark throws out the ballots she'll be flying in the face of clear precedent: Message 14947583 BTW this case, Beckstrom, was ironically cited by Boies et. al. in their arguments before Sauls. The precedent for throwing out absentee ballots (a Miami mayoral race) was entirely different -- in that case, there was evidence of fraud in the votes themselves. The FL SC has already made it clear they'll bend over backwards to "let every vote count". Partisanship aside, they're judges and I'm sure they actually believe their previous ruling in Harris was correct, so how can they change their tune now? With a ruling for the plaintiffs Clark could send enough juice through Gore's corpse to make it twitch a bit but, based on existing case law, there's no way the FL SC could let it stand. At least, I hope to God that's so.
