Learn how to count!! The opinion was 5 to 4.

Dissenters Souter and Breyer wanted a single standard for all counties. Dimples would have been OK if all counties used the same rule. They indicated that the problems were caused by the interference of the Court and might have been fixed by the Florida court in the recount if the Court had allowed the count to finish.
