If it is unconsitutional in Missouri for the senate seat to be decided that way, then it is the legal mandate of some govt. official not to take the so-called "high ground". The heck with the issue of when the balloting closed just like i say the heck with the issue of confusion. The law is what matters. If a dead man can not be voted to office and that is what the Mo. Constitution says, then the atty general of Mo. should, in non uncertain terms, initiate a lawsuit. It doesn't have to be Ashcroft that does it. Although I am sure it would be attributed to him just as Palm Beach voter action is being attributed to Gore. My guess is that is not what the Constitution says. It probably says something to that effect but requires interpretation and whenever interpretation is required, there will be people who interpret differently. If it was as black and white as you say, somebody woould have filed suit to nulify the election. It could have been an individual Mo. resident. And, heck, it may happen given what is going on in Florida. And, you know what, i wouldn't complain about that either. Citizens have the right to be heard in court. It is the court's duty to expeditiously hear the matter and dismiss it if there are no grounds to go forward.

OK, nuf said. How about QCOM today. Somebody finally read something other than press releases on the election.
