foxnews.com This is really good reading... Text of Concurring Opinions Wednesday, December 13, 2000 Chief Justice Rehnquist, with whom Justice Scalia and Justice Thomas join, concurring: This modification of the code, by lengthening the protest period, necessarily shortened the contest period for Presidential elections. Underlying the extension of the certification deadline and the shortchanging of the contest period was, presumably, the clear implication that certification was a matter of significance: The certified winner would enjoy presumptive validity, making a contest proceeding by the losing candidate an uphill battle. In its latest opinion, however, the court empties certification of virtually all legal consequence during the contest, and in doing so departs from the provisions enacted by the Florida Legislature. .... and it goes on detailing all the errors.
