Scumbria - RE: "There is pretty strong evidence that the PB ballots violated Florida State laws."

Which laws were violated? I am under the impression the ballot was legal.

"What kind of precedent would it be to not redo the election, given that the vote has become so critical?"

I'll answer your question even though you didn't answer either of mine...

Assuming there is no fraud and the PB ballots didn't violate Florida Laws, not redoing the election would set the precedent that the each vote matters, that people should be extra careful when they look over the ballot and decide who to vote for. It would reinforce that votes are meant to happen once, not over and over again because some people aren't able to vote correctly. It would say if one votes wrong its their fault, not the systems.

Scumbria,

There is pretty strong evidence that the PB ballots violated Florida State laws.

LOL.

There were polls about which candidate would say anything to get elected. Gore "won". I guess he represents the views of his supporters.
