(1) the county near Palm Beach, Florida, whatever its name, I assume (correctly or incorrectly,) is basically Republican ... and therefore administered by Republican officials ... Wrong- The person in charge of the voting in that county is an elected democrat. The ballot had been used before. It was published before the election and was available at the polling place for examination prior to voting. (2) if the recount in Florida does not go Gore's way, do you think he might successfully sue in Federal court, requesting a new vote in that part of Florida ... on the basis that Republicans might have intentionally designed the ballot in that area so it could possibly help Bush and hurt Gore at the same time? Once again it was an elected Democrat that ran the election in that county. The candidate can't protest only the those that vote can and they must show that they were defrauded of their constitutional right to vote. Hard to blame it on the Repubs when that county's election are being run by a Democrat. The other irregularity is a missing ballot box which at the end of the day was not a ballot box but was a box of crayons that belonged to the school which was used as the polling place. FYI ... I voted, but not for either Gore or Bush Seeing how uninformed you are in this matter, this is understandable. To get yourself up to speed take a look at the ballot at the following site where there is a nice picture of this "difficult to read ballot": rushlimbaugh.com JFD
