But that has not created a crisis like this one. The margin was enough to ignore the results of one poll booth in Iowa.

LoF, if that is the case, you revote that portion of Iowa.

>>>>A poll booth malfunctioned in Iowa and all votes were lost. How do we correct that?<<<<

I don't know about where you vote but where I voted I signed my name and they gave me a ballot and a slip of paper with a number on it. The way to correct the problem in Iowa would be to allow the people whose votes were lost to vote again. I think they should do this only if there is a reasonable chance that it would affect the results.

Would you say there is a reasonable chance it would affect the results in Florida. If an error that is correctable happened then why wouldn't everyone want it to be corrected?
When 19,000 votes in one precinct are thrown out something is wrong.

LOF ease up, huh? we are talking about FL, where the entire election hangs in the balanced based upon 1,000 votes.
