very timely article on Fed courts and voter action I am a statistician, but would NOT want the responsiblity for remedy on assignment of all the Buchanan votes I have a decent idea of how I would do it, but methods were involve deep assumptions e.g. "no Buchanan vote was intended for Bush" I must go back to the original conclusion if you cannot fill out a ballot, following simple arrows, or vote twice for a candidate, then I dont think you SHOULD qualify to vote for USA Presidents, let alone decide what to wear in the morning thanks / JW

FL projection: cannot use simple extrapolation anymore the last 18 counties are trending toward no candidate tendency neither Gore nor Bush is benefitting my guess is initial recounts came from Gore camps and latest recounts come from Bush camps 53 of 67 counties now result in a Bush lead of 787 votes looks like the recount final will show a 700-850 Bush lead looks like random jiggles to a figure near 800 with stability more important is the Palm Beach dispute thanks to RhinoRay, veryvery difficult to reverse votes due to ballot confusion I wouldnt give a new repeat vote 1 chance in 100 give the same ballot to 20 friends, and probably nobody would be confused mental giants, they aint I still say the FL absentees will end this dispute and that will NOT be anytime soon great to see NazComp come nicely off lows / Jim
