At the same time I think 7 of them have a real problem with the different standards being used on the punch card ballots. Violating equal protection od U.S. federal law.

Here's something I really don't understand. Since Florida laws are set up so that each individual county sets its own procedures, how can that be a violation of equal protection? Unless Florida's state statutes are unconstitutional...?

Please don't read into this - a uniform standard is preferable, imo, but Florida law just doesn't currently provide for it.
