>>>, and when the democrats say that they have never been counted, what is that? the votes have been counted numerous times...by a machine that is designed to do just that.<<

The machines can only do what they were designed to do. That is count a perfectly cast vote on a ballot. Even the inventor of the machine testified that you must hand count the others in close elections to see who won.

I don't know why it is such a hard thing for a Bush admirer to admit. As one example, when a ballot with a hanging chad goes through the vote counter it doesn't register a vote for anyone if the chad hole has closed back up. That ballot is still a valid vote and there are thousands of ballots that haven't been looked at even once to see if they contain a vote because the machine didn't register a vote from them. It seems so simple to me.
