dan,

>>" Peter, I think the only valid standard is to have the chad punched completely out of the ballot."<<

This is not the standard the Florida legislature (or Texas) decided to use. Let's not forget the "rule of law" chant.

>>"Any more liberal standard to this at best invites tampering and corruption and at worst denies a voter their right to not pick a candidate for president by divining a choice from a scratch on the ballot."<<

Your statement is sound bite logic. How is counting a hanging chad "divining a choice"? Is there a possibility that you heard Jim Baker use those exact words time after time?
