I agree. If they must re vote it should nationally. Maybe it would be the best thing for the country. I honestly don't know.

What would be good about re-doing an entire nationwide vote, is so many more folks would be brought into the electoral process. It could prove a healing action for our nation in that it would help to set back voter apathy which has long been a problem in America.

There will be no re election either in FL or the nation. Discuss it all we want but no re election. Accept it and move on to the other issues. The votes are going to be re counted and the chips will fall where they will. Based on the vote outcome, 25 EC votes will be awarded and the next president named.

It's sad about those who carelessly invalidated their votes but it happened and can't be changed. (Sh*t happens) Ample offers and opportunity for assistance were available to those who sought it or turned it away. There was fraud only if there was proven INTENT. There is no provision in our constitution guaranteeing an individuals competency or intelligence at the voting poll.

We can cackle, whine and wring our hands in dismay. Compile theory, pound tables and bark at the moon or curse the devil. It ain't gonna change it. Think about it hard and you will conclude there is no other answer.
