The Florida recount should determine the winner. But will it? My guess is that Bush would come out on top among the absentee ballots, particularly those from overseas. However, there appears a major voting irregularity in the West Palm Beach area, which possibly could move the Florida results into the courts. If it moves to the courts, it certainly won't be decided anytime soon. I'm sure the dead vote and the illegal immigrant vote will also be considered. I wonder what happens if the vote in Florida is still ambiguous when the electoral college delegates get together to vote in December. Does that trigger the one vote/state in the House to decide the president and one vote/person in the Senate for the VP? Ick.
