M.....something to consider...... If the wrong man is Enthroned.....Hmmmmm Tim To: Keith Feral who wrote (89565) From: Bux Friday, Dec 8, 2000 4:54 PM ET Reply # of 89679 Keith, I have always thought it odd that the undervotes were not counted statewide from the get-go in such a close contest. The law has been pretty clear that the candidate with the most votes wins and that in a close election we are not to rely only on the "machine" to do the counting. In other words, it is well recognized that a manual hand count gives a more accurate indication of the will of the people. Don't you want to make sure our next president was elected properly, not based upon incomplete returns. It will be bad enough if the legally elected president does not have the popular vote but would add insult to injury if it was later determined that he didn't even carry the electorial vote. After all, those ballots can be obtained under the freedom of information act. It is important to get the correct count now, not find out later we were wrong. I am all for a statewide manual count and don't think the Florida Legislature should interfere with the natural voting process. George Bush should have agreed to a statewide recount from day one. Yes, it will probably hurt our portfolios in the short-term but the effect should not last long. Bux
